I guess we've evolved now and have a better understanding of the range of abilities that children can and do have. Let's hope that the general public share this understanding and are compassionate and accepting with it. I know it’s a real shame!

It was really touching. I was literally moved to tears. Not all children learn the conentional way. Some are not gifted academically but they turn out to be talented in so many other areas, such as music or art, or even repairing and building things with their hands etc. I remember that when I was little, teachers would sometimes hit children with a ruler on their hands for performing poorly in class. Now I know that such children could very well have been gifted differently. Imagine how those beatings would have impacted on their self esteem at the time! I loved this movie Heena!
