Lesson Takeaways
- You were led to look at your child in a certain way, based on the questions you were asked by people. “Should I teach alternating feet on the stairs?” Does it matter? to whom and why?
- Experts know about a particular subject, but they don’t know much about your particular child or your home and family dynamics.
- You have a valuable and important role in your child’s growth. You are the one making the decision in each moment and each day.
- You’re the one that needs to be responsible and not give your power away, because that’s how you’ll get the most results and peace.
- All kids have different places of challenges, ability and possibility, regardless of the label or diagnosis.
- Don’t compare your child to others or try to find similar stories to yours. Each child has a different starting point and a different “engine of speed”.
