What’s said in this shiur

The opening of this shiur, in Avi Fishoff — TWiSTED Parenting’s own words — taken from the captions, so names and Hebrew terms may be approximate.

The concept is that Hashem does not expect a to to be judged the same as a healthy person who's walking. So, a child goes through a trauma. Any person goes through a trauma, goes through a situation. Hashem is a rachum, a chanon. He's understanding, and every person is sent down to Earth, and they have a different mission. Somebody who's dyslexic is not meant to sit and learn. That's cruelty.
