This morning, as I was performing my latest APD Internet research sweep, this girl posted a video. It was cool. It just popped on my screen, because she loaded it to YouTube a few seconds earlier. It was quite a different video from this one I posted, with the dark portrayal of a teenage girl with APD. Today's video's "star" gives good insight on thoughts surrounding APD. It hit home.
Homeschooling Jared is getting tougher and I have thought some of these thoughts (not the really terrible ones!) I'm sure Jared has also thought some of the other thoughts she mentioned. Like I said, this video really resonated. It came at a perfect time. The last few days of teaching Jared have been the hardest. I cannot even comprehend his dyslexia. I wish I could understand it better. In all honesty, I wish I could FIX it. Teaching a child with dyslexia to read is definitely on my list of one of the hardest things I've ever had to do.
Please check out this one minute video:
But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever, the purposes of his heart through all generations. Psalm 33:11 (NIV)
I'm sort of speechless after watching her video. Wow, is about all I can say.
ReplyDeleteIt definitely sounds like what you and Jared have been feeling.
I wonder where she is, who she is, etc.
