This is a personal story. Everyone's story is different. This is our story. Kids are masters at being chameleons. They don't want to be different or learn differently. They are very good at hiding their struggles, until one day the wheels come off. Teachers and school systems are not always equipped to fully understand learning disabilities. But you don’t have to rely on the system to teach your child how they learn. Understanding your child’s IEP, their brain, and giving them tools to navigate their challenges can help give them a roadmap to succeed on their own terms. We celebrate effort over perfection, understand gaps instead of shaming them, and help our kids grow confident. All we want to do is protect their confidence. You can get back everything else, but you can't get back confidence.
