Experiment
The tests performed on the monkey did help us get a better understanding of how animals would react much like humans would in various situations. However, although this experiment was influential and helped us gain insight, I do not believe it should ever be repeated. It was creul and inhumane how the monkey was treated because he will never have a normal life. The experiment tainted his brain through the isolation and as a result of that, he will never know how to interact with others. Animal rights associations would have a very negative reaction and the experiment will have the same results if repeated a second time.

I agree while the experiments gave us an idea to how we would act in these situations it was way too cruel.
I agree that it was inhumane how the monkey was treated because it will never have a normal life.
I agree with you that although the experiments were insightful to the connection between humans and primates I think the experiments were cruel and should not be repeated. I don't think it's fair that the experiments took away a normal life for these monkeys. It would cause a lot of conflict if they were repeated.
