After reviewing this video with my teenager I saw that he finally understood that maybe he too could become a success despite his learning disability. Often times families and children feel alone and as if nothing will ever be right. Viewing this video gave us hope for my sons future and I thank the Learning Disabilities Association of Massachusetts for offering families this kind of support.

So many adults with learning disabilities struggle through life always believing they are not good enough or that their options are limited. This video opens up the world of possibilities to provide hope and inspiration to adults with LD.

I think this is an excellent video for children and adults with learning disabilities. It shows how an individual with learning disabilities can succeed despite learning differently. My son is 13 years old and this video gives him hope and confidence knowing he can succeed like others before him. This is about real people and their real lives -- its great! A must see for everyone!

Although this tape includes a valuable message for people with learning disabilities it is far too expensive for a 30 minute tape of talking heads. I showed it to my learning disabled students and they were thoroughly bored and thus not actively engaged in hearing the good things that were being said on the tape.
