“Work with the entire iceberg.” The iceberg expression describes children’s suppression of their thoughts and feelings.

When in reality, this is only the “tip of the icecberg.” Other components such as fear, shame, guilt, anxiety, hopelessness, isolation, and denial need to be address during therapy.…

Full ledged language is achieved by communicating and gaining experience with other humans. A study was done comparing parents of different social classes talking to their children and found that the wealthier the families were, the more they communicated with their kids.

Just condsider all of the right-handed gadgets, awkwardly designed desks, and cooking tools that fit comfortably only in your right hand. the "sinistral brain" of the lefty uses the right hemisphere of the brain more dominantly than the left side of the brain — just as right-handed people use the left side of the brain for everyday thought process.
