Immersed in the works of psycholinguists, she has put forward another hypothesis: that of the importance of motherese in interactions with this type of baby. Motherese, displaying, in the voice of the mother, the pleasure and fascination evoked in her by her baby, returns to the third phase of the drive circuit. The babies are eager for this from birth, without the support of any object of need.
