Strong and happy children, generous men and women
Cradle of Humanity
Africa, and in particular this part of the continent, is the cradle of humanity. Here the oldest hominid remains dating back millions of years have been found. It will be a coincidence, but in these places women still raise infants according to the ancestral rules that made us strong and intelligent.

Exogestation: the secret of Africans
Few know the technical term, exogestation, but all have in mind the image of an African woman who keeps her child tied to herself. There are still few studies on the subject but more and more in the maternal and child wards, midwives advise mothers to hold the newborn in their arms for a long time.

The price of standing
It seems that the man, in order to acquire the erect position, had to "narrow" the bones of the pelvis, with the consequent premature birth of the baby. The human cub would be born in a state of strong fragility which would require, like marsupials, continuous contact with the mother's body.
Contact, heat and food: complete nourishment
Only this condition of security and constant human (not inanimate) solicitation would allow a harmonious development of the sense of identity both psychic and bodily. Traveling across the black continent it is very rare to hear a baby cry. Children never cry. They are blessed attached to their mother, with their breasts available at all times. The mother travels, works, looks after the other children ... and in the meantime he has everything he needs: contact and food.

Three years ready for life
At the end of this period, around three years of age, the child is so well structured that he is very independent from our little ones: he already begins to help in family tasks and to live a relationship with his siblings more than with his parents. Sometimes African parents seem hard on their children, but they have much stronger people in front of them than we are used to, children grow up with a clarity of the unusual rules for the West. They know exactly what their place is and what their job is.
