[QUOTE="AllStressedOut, post: 77230, member: 3837"] This dilemna is always going on in my head. Is child rearing nature or nurture? I watch all kinds of true crime series. I find them interesting. Some find it creepy, I know. Anyways, one of the shows husband came across and starting recording for me is called "Most Evil". It's a forensic psychiatrist(ologist)? who has a scale from 1-22 and he rates different people according to how awful their crimes are. The details are pretty graphic, which can prove to me more than I want to hear about, but the science behind some of it, is interesting. In one of the shows, there is a "world renound" neurologist who has some simple tests he has proven, can help determine if you have damage to your frontal lobe. (this is what I thought might interest some on here) It's some basic hand/eye testing that helps determine if the frontal lobe of the brain is working properly. One of the tests, he puts his arms straight out on each side and asks the test subject to look at the hand that's finger does not raise up. So he'd raise his finger up on one hand and watch to see if they would look at the other hand. It's your natural instinct to look at the one moving, so you have to truly think about this to do it properly. Another one he ran his flat hand under the test subjects hands as their hands laid out flat. If the test subjects fingers curled or tried to curl around his fingers, this showed something was wrong. Strange huh? Has anyone else seen this show? What are your thoughts? [/QUOTE]
