🔴 A homework poem written by an autistic 10-year-old child leaves his teacher speechless 🔴
♦️ For 10-year-old Benjamin Giroux, now 14, a student from Plattsburg, New York. It hasn’t always been easy to express himself vocally. He has Asperger’s syndrome, an autism spectrum disorder that causes him to be socially awkward.
♦️ “Benjamin hasn’t written anything in a long time. He can’t bear the pressure of trying to produce a poem as good as that one. As a result, he’s switched mediums and now enjoys painting and music.”
♦️ Benjamin’s poetry brought to light the reality that many special needs children confront today, particularly at school and in the company of other youngsters. Children should be taught the value of empathy and unconditional inclusion from a young age and learn to appreciate everyone, even if they appear to be a bit … different.
