Lean on Me: An Expression of a Mother's Love

My online friend, Angela, has created a website called, "Children with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and Oppositional Defiant Disorder: Lean on Me!!!", on behalf of her son, Scottie, in order to support families with special needs children who were diagnosed with these disorders. She encourages her viewers to remain hopeful and be aware that they have love and support from others via the site.

According to Angie, and as you will read more indepth when you visit the site
, "Our children are our future. We have to make sure that we guide them, love them and let them know that they can do, or be anyone they want to be."

"That you have to work hard, and never give up when it gets to tough. That when you fall, you have to get back up and move forward and continue to shine. We must teach them that because they have a disability, doesn't mean their life is over "NO" you have to believe in yourself, and be all that you can be. You are our shining star, our special gift."

"To my son Scottie, I love you with all my heart and will always be their for you in every way possible and I will make sure to tell you everyday of your life, how much I love you and will be there for you in good or bad. You can always lean on me!! May god bless our children."
