The parietal lobe is a part of the cerebrum. It is responsible for accepting the sensations from the body and in holding and using objects. Also for interpreting the relationship of space and our bodies (like for grasping an object or picking one up or using tools like forks to pick up food and get it into the mouth). The left and right parietal lobes have different functions. Damage to the left will cause problems with writing, math, language, and object identification, as well as left and right confusion. Damage to the right will cause neglect of one side of the body and anything located on that side (like letting the arm drop over the arm of a chair and seemingly not noticing. You may have to move to the other side of the patient to have the patient notice that you are there. If there is damage on both sides there is difficulty with interpreting what's happening in a specific view.
