yeah, i'd definately suggest maybe later on, telling him all the stories of children who were told they would be nothing, or do nothing, and grow up to be very reputable people... can't think of any off the top of my head, but i've read plenty of these stories.

i think peopel underestimate the mind alot... so what if the kid 'isn't all there or slower then others' .... you can literally do almost anything you put your mind to (i only say almost cuz of course, you can't flap your arms and fly no matter how bad you want) it's not a brain that lets you succeed in life, it's will power... and how you choose to utilize your brainpower.
