<div>I was going to get us to talk about how we have communicated about independence with our mothers.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>First, have people recount stories of times when they have successfully convinced their mothers<span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);"> to let them spread their wings.</span></div>
<div><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);">Then, have people describe a challenge they are currently facing with convincing their mothers to let them take another step.</span></div>
<div><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);"><br>
</span></div>
<div><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);">They always want us to be successful, and mothers naturally worry. Sometimes, the mother of a blind child or young adult will worry as a matter of low expectations and misperceptions about blind
people. Sometimes, they will just be worried because they are mothers.</span></div>

</span></div>
<div><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0);">It is important for us to think about these things and how they apply in our own lives.</span></div>
