We see this phenomenon routinely depicted in stories and movies about childhood fascinations that are at first dismissed by adults, only later to be taken seriously when the adults see what the child has discovered. In these stories, there is often one very special adult character who acts as the child’s mentor and guide, giving them support and confidence that there is indeed something worth looking for. My goal is to be that character as my kids explore the world.
