Ian's Gentle Hands and Gentle Words
Ian, a 10-year-old boy with autism and ADHD, faces challenges controlling his aggression amidst the chaos of middle school. As he navigates through stressful encounters at school and recess, he learns to harness tolerance and kindness, particularly with his siblings at home. Can Ian find a way to use gentle hands and words to overcome his obstacles and create a peaceful environment?
Ian was excited about his first day at middle school, but he was also a bit worried. The noise, chaos, and unpredictability of school often overwhelmed him. His teachers and parents reminded him to use gentle hands and words, but it was hard to remember when things got tough. Ian was determined to control his temper, especially after he accidentally shoved a classmate last year. This year, his goal was to make friends and stay calm.
At recess, Ian watched his classmates play, wanting to join but unsure how to start. Suddenly, a soccer ball rolled to his feet, and a group of kids ran over. Ian felt a rush of excitement and fear. How would he join in without getting overwhelmed? One of the kids yelled, - Hey, want to play? Ian hesitated, worried he'd mess up.
As Ian played, the noise became too much. The shouts and laughter felt like a storm in his head. He accidentally tripped a player, causing a chorus of complaints. Ian's heart raced, feeling the familiar frustration boiling up. - Sorry! he said quickly, trying to keep calm. But the kids were upset, and Ian felt like he was failing again.
Back inside, Ian sat alone, feeling defeated. He couldn't figure out how to make friends without causing trouble. His hands fidgeted, and he wished he could just go home. - Why can't I just be like everyone else? Ian thought, feeling the weight of his challenge. He imagined his parents' encouraging words, but they felt distant.
After school, Ian's teacher, Mr. Thompson, noticed his frustration. - Want to talk about it? he asked kindly. Ian nodded, sharing his struggles. Mr. Thompson smiled and said, - Remember, everyone makes mistakes. It's how we learn. Try using words to express how you feel. Ian felt a spark of hope, realizing he had a new tool to try.
At home, Ian was building a Lego tower when Coco accidentally knocked it over. Ian felt the familiar rise of anger, but remembered Mr. Thompson's advice. - Coco, can you help me rebuild it? Ian asked with a deep breath. Coco smiled and nodded, and together they rebuilt the tower. Ian's heart swelled with pride; he did it. He used gentle words and felt the power of tolerance.
