Hey Dummy
$13.49Add to cartA Testimony of an Overcomer There are few things more devastating to a child’s fragile self-esteem than being humiliated before classmates and called a “dummy” by friends, teachers, and even family members. But millions of bright, sensitive, learning disabled children live this nightmare everyday–clinging to the hope that one day, they might achieve their life goals. Everyone has a turning point in their life. For me it came through a newly discovered faith in God and one special teacher who helped me to realize that I had strength to overcome incredible odds including: – A dysfunctional family environment – A paralyzing learning disability – Severe stuttering – Rejection by fellow students and adults Once encouraged and made to feel important, my natural abilities blossomed and I progressed from being unable to read aloud, to becoming an honor student and winning speech tournaments.
