Mental Retardation Unusual

Famous quotes containing the words mental and/or unusual:

    A method of child-rearing is not—or should not be—a whim, a fashion or a shibboleth. It should derive from an understanding of the developing child, of his physical and mental equipment at any given stage, and, therefore, his readiness at any given stage to adapt, to learn, to regulate his behavior according to parental expectations.
    Selma H. Fraiberg (20th century)

    In proceeding to the dining-room, the gentleman gives one arm to the lady he escorts—it is unusual to offer both.
    Lewis Carroll [Charles Lutwidge Dodgson] (1832–1898)
