We've all had times in our lives we would like to forget. Some memories are super embarrassing or painful. Some just remind us how dumb we can be. We need to give ourselves and each other a break. We all make mistakes.
Something I say to myself that applies to everyone, especially kids with exceptional strengths sometimes hidden to the untrained eye:
"Just because you've seen me at my worst, doesn't mean I don't have a best."
One of the boy's teachers forgot this and it made for a very hard year.
Cheers, to all the teachers and student support teams who see the golden nugget in every kid. And here's to the resilience in all of us.
