Infantilization
In
suggestopedia we do not talk about infantilization in the clinical sense of the
word, nor of infantility. Infantilization in the process of education is a
normal phenomenon connected with authority (prestige). Infantilization in
suggestopedia must be understood roughly as memories of the pure and naïve state
of a child, to whom someone is reading, or who is reading on their own. They are
absorbing the wonderful world of fairytales. This world brings them a vast
amount of information and the child absorbs it easily and permanently.
