I really like the last part. And also how Society looks at a neurodivergent person. Even a lot of people mistake it as part of the child's nature and leave it undiagnosed. Where in future the child meets with difficulties and thinks that they are the problem and feels overwhelmed, ends up with resentment. Thank you so much for the session and the knowledge you have shared is valuable.
