paragaster Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Before puberty everybody is able to cope with his/her questions. Post puberty a new dimension is added to the child. He is drawn out(???) and begins to know the world with his senses. His appetite for experiences increases. His expectations are through a viel of intimacy. When they are not met he/she cannot cope as he/she would have pre puberty period. Does your gender reality cloud your judgement? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ophiolite Posted October 22, 2016 Share Posted October 22, 2016 Before puberty everybody is able to cope with his/her questions. If this is so, why are some prepubescent children deeply troubled? Post puberty a new dimension is added to the child. He is drawn out(???) and begins to know the world with his senses. What?!? Are you using "senses" as a euphimism for sexual awakening? That is the only explanation I can imagine. If you mean this literally it is simply wrong. His appetite for experiences increases. Please provide (several) citations to justify this incorrect statement. His expectations are through a viel of intimacy. When they are not met he/she cannot cope as he/she would have pre puberty period. I assume you meant veil, but even with that correction this makes no sense. Intimacy involves the removal of the figurative veil and thus there is no veil of intimacy. Does your gender reality cloud your judgement? That appears to be a non-sequitur.

Raider5678 Posted October 23, 2016 Share Posted October 23, 2016 I dunno.... I had a pretty difficult time dealing with questions when I was 8, let alone after puberty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sirona Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 Your logic is not consistent with my personal experience working with adolescents and research. Could you first clarify your statement for discussion including possible studies or literature? I particularly do not understand why you think that young children can 'cope with any questions'. It seems, at least to me that you view adolescence as a time of crisis rather than a continuity of exploration; making sense of your environment and your place in it. Even as adults we continue to ask questions and make new discoveries, even about ourselves. 'Coping' as you put it is complex because it is not just governed by age, but by genes and environment. A person could have a crisis at any age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ophiolite Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 A person could have a crisis at any age. Some of us have them at every age. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharonY Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 And as you get older you discover a lot of new things about your body (mostly as they fail or do funny things). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
