"Our research demonstrates that infants can learn from maternal expressions of fear very early in life. Before they can even make their own experiences, they basically acquire their mothers' experiences. Most important, these maternally transmitted memories are long-lived, whereas other types of infant learning, if not repeated, rapidly perish."
