Detailed explanation-1: -A feral child is a human child who has lived isolated from human contact from a very young age, and has no (or little) experience of human care, loving or social behavior, and, crucially, of human language. Some feral children have been confined in isolation by other people, usually their own parents.
Detailed explanation-2: -feral children, also called wild children, children who, through either accident or deliberate isolation, have grown up with limited human contact.
Detailed explanation-3: -Due to the lack of human connection, most feral children suffer mental impairments, diminished language ability, a lack of social skills, and physical problems. During our formative years, we learn how to behave in accordance with our culture through a process called enculturation.
Detailed explanation-4: -Feral children lack the basic social skills that are normally learned in the process of enculturation. For example, they may be unable to learn to use a toilet, have trouble learning to walk upright after walking on fours all their lives, or display a complete lack of interest in the human activity around them.
Detailed explanation-5: -These cases of feral children show that extreme isolation-or, to put it another way, lack of socialization-deprives children of the obvious and not-so-obvious qualities that make them human and in other respects retards their social, cognitive, and emotional development.
