Parents? Watch These!

Two videos of what parents trusting and empowering their children can do for the kiddo's development...

The first video is about a young man who has been legally blind since age 2 due to cancer, yet he navigates our world better than many of us do with two fully-functioning eyes.
-> YouTube - Blind Kid Uses Echo Location!

The next video is entitled "5 Dangerous Things You Should Let Your Kids Do" and it's about parents knowing that it's not just OK to step back and let kids experience and experiment, it's an absolute necessity for their development.
-> TED | Talks | Gever Tulley: 5 dangerous things you should let your kids do (video)

Enjoy!
