(5/9) They trusted me enough to agree. And we all had to experiment and work hard to get the systems right.
And here's the thing...this wonderful and amazing kid had spend NINE years of school complying and learning to "behave" by not tapping his knee constantly and suppressing his emotions.

The things he learned he brain could do when school bent just a little to who he was were truly AMAZING.
He also learned that he loved learning and could like school.
And then the next year, all the teacher wanted was compliance.
Schools can do better.
