Genie (feral child) - Wikipedia
“Genie's father fed Genie as little as possible and refused to give her solid food, feeding her only baby food, cereal, Pablum, an occasional soft-boiled egg, and liquids. Her father, or when coerced, her brother, spooned food into her mouth as quickly as possible, and if she choked or could not swallow fast enough the person feeding her rubbed her face in her food.[12][46][47] These were normally the only times he allowed his wife to be with Genie, although she could not feed Genie herself. Genie's mother claimed her husband always fed Genie three times a day but also said that Genie sometimes risked a beating by making noise when hungry, leading researchers to believe he often refused to feed her.[9][46] In early 1972 Genie's mother told researchers that, whenever possible, at around 11:00 at night she would surreptitiously try to give Genie additional food, causing Genie to develop an abnormal sleep pattern in which she slept from 7 to 11 PM, woke up for a few minutes, and fell back asleep for an additional 6 1⁄2 hours. This sleep pattern continued for several months after she began to receive medical attention.”
She only ended up being 4 6” which is well below average for even a woman. I’m thinking this proves how much environment can fuck you over regardless of genetics.
