A parent who really desires to understand his child does not look at him through the screen of an ideal. It is only when one feels no love for the child that one imposes upon him an ideal, for then one's ambitions are trying to fulfil themselves in him, wanting him to become this or that. If one loves, not the ideal, but the child, then there is a possibility of helping him to understand himself as he is. Krishnamurti
I would be very happy to stop psychiatrists, full stop, they just make stories based on their own limited imagination IMHO! And I love this, but sadly those other labels are hard to achieve when subjected to the demands and prejudices of today's society, I suppose that is somewhat the point. I have sought out labels like ADHD for me and my kids as the alternative is not philosopher, brilliant or original thinker as they truly are but lazy, irresponsible, underachiever and misbehaving.
Thanks for sharing this link - but unfortunately it seems to be down? Does anybody here at aspiehomeeducation.blogspot.com have a mirror or another source?
