“But the hidden part, the part that only comes out to those who are closest to me, is still there; ready to rear its head any moment. That side includes intense irritability, anger, frustration, nervousness, upset stomach, shaking, rapid heart rate, questioning, over-analyzing, overthinking, over-everything. It craves silence, stillness, no touching — or the exact opposite; it wants hugs and words of reassurance, both in abundance. These are the “things” that clash and collide in my head as it tries to sort out the what and the why of my own mind. “

When you want to teach children to think, you begin by treating them seriously when they are little, giving them responsibilities, talking to them candidly, providing privacy and solitude for them, and making them readers and thinkers of significant thoughts from the beginning. That’s if you want to teach them to think.
