Colman Noctor: 'Inside Out 2' navigates turbulent teen emotions  

"One of the significant challenges of working therapeutically with younger children is discussing emotions in a language they can understand. Many children are ‘visual’ learners at that age, so the Inside Out characters are an excellent template to help them discuss their feelings."

"What one child understands by the words ‘sad’ or ‘worried’ may vary considerably from another child’s understanding, so clarifying language is a core principle of therapeutic work."

WHEN I watched the first Inside Out movie in 2015, I came away believing I had witnessed something exceptional. The plot line was unique and insightful, and I was intrigued by its impact on young viewers.

The movie deals with the complex theme of childhood emotions in a relatable and exciting way by creating characters to represent each emotion, such as joy, sadness, fear, anger, and disgust.
