Additionally, dreams do not attract nor require a copious amount of attention and they reside covertly in the back of someone 's mind. Perhaps the person has not elected to share their dream, so over time, it becomes a work of tired thoughts and ideas that have grown old and the person misplaces or forgets their own dream.

Introduction According to Coppelia Kahn women experience inequality in the traditional family setting of being the primary caretaker of the children during their pre-Oedipal stage of development (1985/2004). It is in this stage that Nancy Chodorow argues females suffer from a prolonged attachment to the mother in distinct ways which boys do not experience (1978/2004). In this stage also, according to both Kahn and Chodorow, that females have difficulty forming an identity distinctly independent of their mother and her identity.
