never left the womb

what would happen to a child if it never had to come out of the womb? never had to use its eyes or muscles... how would the mind develop? would it already be awake? what is the process of awakening? it seems like it's merely the deconstruction of all ideas, beliefs, concepts...pretty much everything the mind has absorbed over a lifetime. what if we couldn't think, we could only perceive? is that how the mind of a creature of lesser intelligence works?
