If a child struggles somewhere... Embrace it!

      There are a lot of people who are anti-school or are pro-school. I do not think one side is right or wrong, because I am a strong believer that each kid is unique and parents should do what is best for his or her own child, and what fits with the family dynamics. No matter what side you are one this is an amazing video on embracing kids and their 'difficulties.'

     This also reminds me of a Great Article  I have read, it is about a few very successful people with ADHD. And the reason they are so successful is because they had parents who empowered them, rather then break them. Even if your child does not have ADHD, there are approaches to children with ADHD that work great with strong willed kids. One of these people was Michael Phelps, whose mother embraced his diagnosis of ADHD and learned to empower him. The key ingredient in these stories is a parent who took the time to know their children.
