It can be particularly difficult when, as a father, you observe the frustrations of your children while performing simple tasks. We have to remind ourselves, we are on the outside looking in
and, for those children who are born with a disability, they know, no different.
When Daniel was a baby he would struggle with playing with toys in the way the toy advertisement demonstrates. In his mind the advertisement immediately established what was possible, then he had to deal with the frustrations of what he could achieve. The consistent gap in his abilities versus the imagery of what was possible caused frustration for him so Penny and I set out to reduce the level of frustration, and replace it with a cycle of achievement and positive reinforcement.
