And what's challenging, I think, to many parents is,

your kid could be into mechanical things.

Your kid could be able to take apart computers and put them back together.

And you're like, how is this relevant to English class?

So we have to somehow figure out our kids that have these really cool strengths

Figuring out where that fits into our society and our culture, because they're going to get messages of like, that's great that you're good at that.

But that's not how the world works.

Right.

And so we've got to help them navigate that and figure out how that cannot feel just really soul crushing to them in that moment.

Yeah.

I'm going to use the example of driving because I also think that that is culturally...

very American because we're far away from everything.

Right.

And so one of the things I notice, and again, I have a 17 year old.

So when your kid is 17, everyone asks you, Oh, they're driving.

How is that?

Well, my kid is not driving.

There are several reasons he's not driving.

But in addition to lots of attention, executive functioning things, he also has epilepsy.

It's so interesting because there are people who know our family and would not ask that question because they know our family.
