It is about oxytocin a hormone that makes you trust. It talks about a child with Williams syndrome, a disease that apparently makes it impossible to distrust anyone, even strangers. This child constantly tells stranger she loves them. People are not strangers to here just "friends she hasn't made yet."
I am a distrustful person. I almost always look at things people do with cynical eyes, not trusting people. It is something I really hate about myself.
I don't want Williams syndorme because there are legitimate reasons for distrust. The poor child in this article will always need supervision. Yet I am fascinated with the idea what it would be like to live in her shoes just for one day. Trusting everyone must mean being fantastically happy at all times.
