Quaden Learns How To Stop Being Teased

Date: 2020-03-21

One month ago today, the world was introduced to this 9-year-old Australian boy in tears. Kids teased him about his dwarfism and he suffered from suicidal thoughts. The internet was divided: some heartily supported him and others accused him of being an 18-year-old scammer.

I started working with Quaden after his mother reached out to me for help. My goal from the beginning was to build up his emotional resilience and help him experience unconditional self-acceptance of his dwarfism. Our sessions have been a blast and have consisted of role-playing many aggressive scenarios he might find himself in. He now sees the gift that his dwarfism can be to the world and has developed the ability to take and make a joke about himself without tears. I am confident he's ready to go back to school (as soon as it opens) and solve any social problem without suffering.
