Really, I can’t imagine anyone telling a blind child not to dream of and pursue anything they want.
My grandfather used to do business with Jim McDivitt after he left NASA. He always told us kids that we could all be working in space some day.
Hey, it’s thinking like that which led to people telling a young Kenyan Muslim that he could be President of the United States if he wanted to. Look where that’s got us!
I couldn’t imagine giving a child false hope.
