Observations

 In the past few weeks I have been doing my personal observations and research into how individual traumas affects individuals.My research has zeroed down on how childhood traumas cut across ones social behaviour irrespective of the economic class one ends up in adulthood.

For instance,go to a pub,club or bar/restaurant.When individuals walk in.No one might notice anything of naught about the(lets call them specimen x's)Several drinks later the colors begin appearing distinctly on this chromatogram.For instance my recent experience with a particular specimen x at a popular joint in an unspecified destination.The specimen drinks into the evening begins walking about buying drinks for anyone who 'seems to notice him' after the whole experience having not received his fair share of 'attention' goes ahead to dance around the whole place eliciting mixed reactions from revellers.How does my psychoanalysis set in.It is my well informed submission that such an individual might not have gotten the undivided parental attention as a child now as an adult this need has constantly been in the forefront of his subconscious.

What is my basis for this pose it.Plain and simple,in most rural african populace our parents in the previous decades had at least five kids in addition to providing and educating this children there was never an opportune moment to give each child undivided attention leave alone catering to their individual needs.Therefore as adults those kids if at some point had had individual doubts about themselves no one might have noticed and therefore like daywalkers this childhood issues might manifest at some point into their adulthood.

This is why we end up with adult-babies or man'childs as popularly called.Itmight not be entirely their fault.So nextime you see a man behaving like an underage once the kicks of whatever shots start kicking in,have a little grace to get on with it.
