Child With Narrow Ear Canals

The child's brain is working very hard to understand the signals his ears send his brain. Narrow ear canals physically alter a child's perception of sound. He will hear high pitched noises loudly, but be almost deaf to some of the most important sounds related to speech. If parents are showing pity, their brain might not fully be able to handle the information he is receiving. thier brain will grow to make all noise perceptually louder. Meltdowns are quite disturbing and the child may need to be protected from both over and under stimulation. The child may even experience and adjust to pain from sound to the point they appear insensitive to other forms of pain.

Paradigm Conflict

Humans can see common shapes from just a few points. Humans use patterns to create images of what they see. A human only needs to see 3 points to see a triangle, changing where the 3 points ares shown can completely change a persons perspective. Calling someone stupid because they are viewing different data is counterproductive.

Science Challenge: Ask questions of someone with a different prospective on any topic, try to explain their paradigm, are they looking at information you haven't seen before?

Presumption of Superiority

Science Fallacy:
Presumption of superiority, assuming the superiority of your own why of doing or seeing things.
Presumptions of superiority is incorrect because the systems thrive on balance not sameness.
Example: IQ tests have a presumption of superiority for people who understand latin roots. In other words people who are educated in latin roots and their children are presumed to be superior in IQ without any real evidence.
Example: Hate groups have a presumption of superiority for people of certain races, or people without disability, or people most like themselves.
Example: Wars were killing another persons children.

Science Challenge: Name more presumptions of superiority.
