Sobre IBD

People worked hard, back then, to promote themselves as they believed they should be. Norman Rockwell, then Ozzie and Harriet, depicted Godlike behaviors and values that we continue to admire. However the hurt and loneliness endured by the fat girl, the oddball, the foreigner or the village idiot was largely ignored. Hopefully, they didn’t live on our block. Few of us can attain Rockwellian Ideals. We’re born with powerful and indelible compulsions. The flesh is weak and failure to achieve the ideal can result in the worst kinds of hypocracy. Pretending to be something we aren’t causes damage to ourselves and to others as well. We’ve all heard stories about explosive consequences of passion denied. This book is about one man’s fight to be kind to others, true to himself, yet achieve normalcy in a world with little tolerance for those who are, somehow, 'queer'.

This implies that they would learn at their own individual pace, which would cause the gaps between the faster learners and the slower learners to gradually increase. In short, we know a lot more abo...
