Parents and teachers often wonder, "What's wrong with this kid?" Parents start searching for an answer and often come up with labels such as ADD, ADHD and other learning disabilities. They really are normal. The problem is that our left-brainers, aka audio-sequential learners, are the ones who think in steps and words and are the ones who keep this world in some sort of order. They do not comprehend why it's so difficult for some people to think any other way. So the order keepers, as I like to call them, have unknowingly put these geniuses in special ed and have medicated many of them. I suppose they didn't know what else to do. I dare to say there are as many VSL's as there are ASL's in this world but they have either figured out a way to hide their brilliance by finding their own methods of existing (which can lead to depression), or they get put away with special ed and medications. If you do meet a VSL that has been nurtured, encouraged and given a platform to rise up, they are some of the most interesting people to talk to. They see things others do not; their insight is amazing. You remember Albert Einstein, right? He was a full-on VSL. It's time to change their world!
