GENIE WILEY | WORLD'S MOST ABUSED CHILD | ABUSED BY HER FATHER | EXPLOITED | ABANDONED

SUPPORT THE CHANNEL HERE: https://www.patreon.com/ladyandthemannequintruecrime Genie , born in 1957, is the nickname of an American child who was a victim of severe abuse, neglect, and social isolation. When she was approximately 20 months old, her father began keeping her in a locked room. During this time, he almost always strapped her into a child's toilet or bound her in a crib with her arms and legs immobilized, denied anyone from interacting with her, gave her almost no stimulation of any kind, and left her severely malnourished.The extent of her isolation prevented her from being exposed to any significant amount of speech, and as a result she did not acquire language during her childhood. Her abuse came to the attention of Los Angeles County child welfare authorities in November 1970, when she was 13 years and 7 months old, after which she became a ward of the state of California.
Psychologists, linguists, and other scientists initially focused a great deal of attention on Genie's case. When they determined that Genie didn’t learn any language, linguists saw Genie as providing an opportunity to gain further insight into the processes controlling language acquisition skills and to test theories and hypotheses identifying critical periods during which humans learn to understand and use language.
In other words, the scientists saw Genie as an opportunity to use her for human experimentation. Throughout the time scientists studied Genie, she made substantial advances in her overall mental and psychological development. Within months, she developed exceptional nonverbal communication skills and gradually learned some basic social skills, but even by the end of their case study, she still exhibited many behavioral traits characteristic of an unsocialized person. She also continued to learn and use new language skills throughout the time they tested her, but ultimately remained unable to fully acquire a first language.
