A developmental delay is just that: a delay. Children whos development is delayed can reach the normative standard for any developmental bracet within their age choohorts, as long as the delay is caught early and they get adequate support.
So right. I worked with kids for a short time in my youth and we had a few kids that were delayed in some areas. For example there was one that had issues with their motor skills and we exposed kiddo to little tasks that would challenge their motor skills and encouraged them so that they wouldn’t connect shame to their delay. I wonder where they are today. They were a great kid and there was nothing wrong with them intellectually or other. They just had some challenges in one area and that was okay.
It is so trippy to think about how they and all the other kids I helped look after back then, are fully grown adults in their early twenties today. Time is such a trip.
maybe the projects at my work place can join
Underrated comment of the day
Fake because anon doesn’t visit his grandparents because he is gay and they don’t approve of his lifestyle.
Took 15 years for their student to read a sign. Not a huge win for the school.
Hey, at least Anon can read and write now.
But also goes on 4chan so…
In 15 years a school can change. Might have been inclusive and then went to special needs only
Yo I have a friend that unfortunately has ongoing epileptic issues. I swear every time he has a big attack, another IQ point is knocked off.
He is one of the happiest and nicest people to deal, like a giant Labrador. Intelligence isn’t always what it is cracked up to be.
My brain damaged cat is by far the happiest creature in my entire house.
