shielding baby

[Dumplins]

You all probably like a baby can shield well we all don't know that lol but yeah thats not the question.

Okay is it possible to make a baby shield at an age like one or in its months ? maybe send its brain a conceptual picture of shielding so the babe can shield ? or how would you shield a babe with out the person trying to shield it. like make the babe shield on its own??

If you're trying to teach psionics from a very early age then it would probably be best to use PK or something that the infant can actually respond to without needing to use anything other than it's primary senses. If you practiced around it enough and made the impression that whatever you were trying to teach it was a normal part of everyday life then it would catch on, but it wouldn't realise that using the abilities all the time when it's older is a bad idea.

Yeah I heard that if you don't talk to babies when like when after their born like weeks and years it will be hard for them to talk at all when you do talk to them they will catch on to it so maybe when I shield and stuff it can catch on or with/e

Probably not. Kids that age would find it difficult if not impossible to wrap their minds around the concepts needed to pull it off. And even if they were able to you don't want them learning stuff like any form of kinesis until after the terrible twos. Might make getting a babysitter easier.

Johnny, pick up your toys.
No!
(a bit later)
Time out!
*toy moves out of grasp*
Johnny, look toward the wall.
*he does, toys keep moving*
(later yet)
Umm, Mrs. Hesse? Scratch the job on Sunday.
Why?
*tongue tied*
(later)
Johnny, what did I tell you about doing that?
Doing what?

If you're trying to avoid making a continuous effort to shield, you might want to program up a sort of protective pet. Alternately a shield anchored to something the baby always has with them at the times they would need shielding would work. Just don't forget to give it a way to keep itself powered up and repaired.

It's a natural function, we find it hard because we didn't learn it as infants, the same as we would find it hard to learn to move an arm if we had never explored our physical abilities and learned from example. The concept of a kinesis or EM is to move stuff without touching it, that's all that needs to be understood by the child, the rest is handled by the subconscious.
