Very interesting. I don't necessarily agree with the "everyone is a genius" part ( because Lord knows I'm not one), but we could all take this sage advice to heart by respecting and accepting each others' differences, talents, and abilities.A special thank you goes out to my cousin Heidi, who posted this on Facebook the other day. Her sweet 9 year old daughter struggles with a reading comprehension/retention disability and constantly beats herself up over the fact that she can't keep up academically with her peers (even though she tests at a high school level in complex problem solving skills and puzzles).
Hopefully Heidi will come to realize over time that her strengths will outweigh her struggles. I believe everyone has something special to bring to the table. Best wishes to Heidi!
ReplyDeleteSorry, WT - - in my previous comment, I meant to specifically address Heidi's daughter rather than Heidi herself....silly me....
