Several cases of children who grew up in extreme social isolation, such as the case of Genie in 1970, suggest that most of our mental capacities, and perhaps even the ability to think, are learned through social interaction.
There have been a number of cases of feral children raised in social isolation with little or no human contact. Few have captured public and scientific attention like that of a young girl called Genie Wiley. She spent almost her entire childhood locked in a bedroom, isolated and abused for over a decade.
Genie's case was one of the first to put the critical period theory to the test. Could a child reared in utter deprivation and isolation develop language? Could a nurturing environment make up for a horrifying past?
This article discusses Genie's life, her treatment, and the impact that abuse and deprivation had on her language development. It also covers the ethical problems with her case.
Discovery and Study (1970-1975)
Genie's story came to light on November 4, 1970, in Los Angeles, California. A social worker discovered the 13-year old girl after her mother sought out services for her own health. The social worker soon discovered that the girl had been confined to a small room, and an investigation by authorities quickly revealed that the child had spent most of her life in this room, often tied to a potty chair.

I believe it would be D the power to veto laws. If it's wrong I'm sorry...
Answer:
(a)The congress could pass a bill by stopping medications of life-or death from being increased to a particular value, thereby making Mylan to reduce their prices, to a more tangible value (b) If the president is not part of this decision, he can use his veto powers against the bill passed by the congress, thereby making Mylan to retain their rates as high as it is currently (c) Lobbyist and Interest groups will further express their ideas towards the president and congressmen to hold on, or make a change in the bill.
Explanation:
Solution:
(a) Congress could pass a bill by stopping important life-or-death medications from being added up above a certain value. in doing so,Mylan would be made to lower their prices to a more sensible value.
(b) If the President is not in approval of this sort of law making, he can use the power of veto towards the bill passed by Congress, in doing so Mylan can keep their rates as high as present as it is now. As a result, the power of Congress is weakened by the President's own power.
(c) For them to push their ideas forward, many lobbyists and interest groups would likely meet with the president and congressmen encouraging them to either or hold firm or make a change in their position on the bill such as lobbying several organizations that fight for the right of victims would urge congress to disallow a presidential veto of the bill this would mean that if they vote to override the veto, the bill becomes a law.
