I had to home-school my,now, 16 1/2 year old
son because of a terrible bowel leakage problem
he developed at the age of 3.
Even though I am a reading and comprehension
specialist , I have found my child nothing short
of impossible to teach. I have tried in private
and group settings with less than desireable
results. The doctors at Vandetbilt Children’s Hospital have commended me for NOT sending him to school and sparing him a life sentence
of ridicule and humiliation ( that the majority
of their patients experience ; and all the psychiatric counceling that coincides with the
the children and teenagers struggle to balance
acedemics with bullying , ridicule , low to no
self-esteem and of course the medical condition
itself:that many sufferers Never out-grow ).
I am so grateful to the Lord, my son is one of the very lucky ones and was healed of this when he was about 12 years old.

As I stated earlier , I am under great blame
and ridicule for not placing him in school when
he started Jr.High school even from my own
husband, older ( grown ) children , their wives and friends. I know in my heart, my son would
not thrive in that environment yet ; but would
struggle with his handwriting ( a Major hot button here as he is so defiant in this subject
that I held him back 1 entire school year.
“3rd.” grade ). My heart breaks for him because
of everything I’ve written and the fact He is self-
conscious of his deficit that he literally hits himself on the head I’m frustration and verbally
berates himself. I feel like a tremendous
failure as a mother and teacher.

If Anyone can relate to our problem…
