- 13. Children and adults with learning disabilities truly are hero’s. They over come obstacles that ordinary people do not understand. These people all have the same traits in common they turn their disabilities into challenges to over come. Their determination to over come their fears. Their drive to succeed and over come any obstacle they face. To rise up above all the odds. To fight through the shame and fear they face, the depression of being different and to conquer it. They show the world there not afraid of anything that comes their way, that they have not jus conquered their disabilities but the world around them.
