Why Some Children Bloom While Others Wither
Have you ever wondered why two children from the same family can turn out so differently? Why one sibling sails through childhood while another struggles at every turn? This isn't just a parenting puzzle-it's a profound scientific mystery that reveals something essential about human nature itself. Roughly one in five children experiences the majority of health problems and psychological difficulties in any population, consuming over half of all healthcare resources. Yet these same sensitive children, when given the right conditions, often become our most creative, empathetic, and successful adults. The key lies not in fixing what's "wrong" with them, but in understanding that they're wired differently-like orchids among dandelions, requiring different care to flourish. This isn't about weakness or strength; it's about sensitivity to the world around us, and it changes everything we thought we knew about raising children.
