'Maybe it’s not perfect grades and sport teams we should be celebrating. Those are definite accomplishments, but maybe the world needs to dole out a little bit more praise for kids who see people for who they are, regardless of grades or special needs.'
and needs a team of people trailing behind him with lunch, classwork, or a forgotten book bag. My son who leaves me up worrying sleepless nights about his future.
You called today in tears to say that my son helped a special needs student who has trouble speaking. You told me how my son had patience like nothing you have ever seen. You recognized my son. You saw him. Thank you.for how he throws a ball. You didn’t see the child whose teammates put dirt in his water bottle at practice or knock his sheet music off the stand at band. You saw that it’s not about grades. You saw the kindness of his heart. The patience he has with others.
You said it made your day. You said my son’s actions make you believe in the future. I’m glad he did that for you. But please know it was huge for me.Your call gave me the hope I strive for every minute of every day — the hope that he will be OK. It reminded me that, though his ADHD may make things, it is also a gift. It makes him see all people. It makes him compassionate. It makes him not judge anyone.
You actually said he was a “good kid” — words a parent of a child with ADHD value more than anything. Maybe it’s not perfect grades and sport teams we should be celebrating. Those are definite accomplishments, but maybe the world needs to dole out a little bit more praise for kids who see people for who they are, regardless of grades or special needs. I needed this today more than you will ever know. Thank you.
