Oh my goodness you are so right. My 9 year old was told she is one of the best girls in class because she is quiet and works hard and doesn’t disrupt. And everything else, I was also an outgoing child who was always told off for being too cheeky and now I barely speak up in work meetings.
I need to be more mindful about how my daughter is being raised in this world.
Thank you for sharing. Your daughter sounds brilliant, my husband also has ADHD and it’s a superpower if you let it be.
