About this episode
Do you know how microwave popcorn works?
Each kernel has a tiny drop of water inside. When that drop of water is heated up, the kernel explodes into popcorn!
Here’s what I want to hone in on– even though they are placed in the same bag and heated in the same microwave— each kernel will turn into popcorn at different times.
In the same way, your son will develop at his own rate. It’s very normal for boys to develop at a slower rate than girls, and then eventually catch up. But often, the school system continues to compare boys and girls as equals, which leads to many boys being considered developmentally delayed.
If that describes your son– don’t lose heart. Most likely, he will catch up in due time. He is perfectly and wonderfully made.
