“Kids know they can't make it alone, yet at the same time, built into each one of us, is a survival ethic. It says, "Nobody cares and you have to look out for yourself and if you don't, you'll die." These two things work against each other. I think most kids are very frightened of their parents, and that's what all fairy tales reflect: Parents will fail you and you'll be left on your own. But, of course, everything comes out right in the end and the parents take you back.” IfsThinkingKnowsLooksTwoEndsCareKidsDiesCoursesLeftParentFailingSurvivalEthicsBuiltTalesTwo ThingsFairyFrightenedFairy TaleLook At YourselfNobody Cares Author:Stephen King

“When you sleep your eyes move left and right and physical movement takes trauma and moves it from your frontal lobe to the back of your brain or to another part of the brain where you can store it that memory but when you think about those things that happened, you don't associate the feeling that normally comes with it. So the problem is if you have something traumatic happen and you are not getting a good amount of rest, it will stay in your frontal lobe.” IfsThinkingFeelingsProblemHappensEyeMovingLeftMemoriesSleepBrainHappenedMovementAmountTraumaStoresAssociatesLeft And Right Author:Matty Mullins
