QUOTABLE:
ROSS W. GREENE
““[K]ids with behavioral challenges lack important thinking skills, an idea supported by research in the neurosciences over the past thirty years.... The thinking skills involved aren’t in the traditional academic domains—reading, writing, and arithmetic—but rather in domains such as regulating one’s emotions, considering the outcomes of one’s actions before one acts, understanding how one’s behavior is affecting other people, having the words to let people know something’s bothering you, and responding to changes in plan in a flexible manner. In other words, these kids have a developmental delay, a learning disability of sorts.”
