Did your parents consider performing artificial cranial deformation on you when you were a kid?
- as was once common practice in South America, and Europe and Western Asia too. How did they know the deformation would not damage your brain or affect your mental ability - or did they?
No, Element that would have been accidental, not deliberate. Like a recruit mowing down 13 of his comrades because his crap piece of weaponry stuck on auto and he hadn't yet been appraised of how to deal with such an eventuality. I do know of a case where such an accident (child dropped on head) occurred. This was a long time ago, and the home nurse didn't immediately alert the family to what she'd done. The child had problems because of it, and was never 'right', and he died young. This happened in my own extended family.
