We seldom see these so-called "symptoms" in our lives. They have not disappeared, nor are they dead after seeing the light, and not all of them are dead houses.
They just become "invisible people". They are invisible under the protection of their parents. Their parents are ashamed to take them into public places. They have to take great risks to send them to school and complete the studies that ordinary people can reach. They are even more afraid. Because their weird behavior makes others feel uncomfortable and embarrass themselves; conversely, society only leaves this group of people with a very small living space, leaving contempt, ridicule, curiosity, contempt, avoiding it, and lacking it alone. Respect and protect.
There are too many similar "symptoms" stories, whether it is the long-distance runner Forrest Gump, or the casino "Old Thousand" Rain Man, mechanical repairman Khan, the inventor of game theory pick-up method Nash, and the film’s Dr. Niu Niu Trimble. . . They all have a great experience, and they often have a happy ending. That's because they have had talents that are different from ordinary people since they were young, and these talents have been carefully guarded, and they also resolutely embraced the incompleteness and gained Fate's favor.
However, the more common situation is that most patients do not have amazing talents, but are strangled early or abandoned in the mud. Then, do they lose the opportunity to succeed, and should they give up the need to work hard? ?
In the story, there will always be people who are warm guardians, maintaining nature, and offering love; there will always be people who are disgusting spectators, boring critics and sharp sarcasm.
There is a section in the movie. Temple invented a squeeze machine and placed it in the bedroom. It naturally caused quite a stir. Let us see everyone's reaction. The roommate was scared away when he stepped into the dormitory. The school and the security chose to "demolish". The mother stood by the side of the school rationally. Only Aunt Ann was the firm maintainer. She encouraged Temple to build a better machine and took her. Go to school to fight for the right to stay. The school did not accept this weird decision at the beginning, on the grounds that "science is not helpful for learning".
Interestingly, when Temple said she could do an experiment to prove that the machine was useful, the school actually agreed. What's more interesting is that many students participated in this seemingly stupid experiment, and solemnly explained their true feelings. Temple also solemnly recorded and posted it on the bulletin board.
Such a stupid thing happened like this, and it happened in such a reasonable way, in such a "scientific and democratic" way!
I don't want to use this to explain that topics like "China lacks the spirit of democratic autonomy" and "the United States has the spirit of scientific experimentation" are too big, and I have little knowledge and talents, so I can't discuss them. I just want to ask questions from the most life-oriented point of view. If you are one of your classmates, would you be willing to accept this experiment that has nothing to do with science and give an objective answer? To put it another way, if you are a school, would you allow a "freak" to get a set of silly B devices and take a general survey to test its effects and make a fair decision on "demolition" or "stay"?
Of course, in the end Temple greeted a blind roommate and left the device as he wished.
Those spectators, critics, and sarcasm who seemed to be the protagonist’s growth path turned out to be the power to help her successfully retain her beloved and necessary things. They would raise objections and express negative emotions, but they would still be tolerant. The mentality is accepted, this may be that the United States is a country full of weirdo, but in fact it is GEEK.
Perhaps, many times, we just saw the scene of the "big hut", preconceived that some people are big and some people are small, and draw conclusions. As everyone knows, except for visual illusions, the big ones are not necessarily really big, and the small ones are not necessarily small. . We were just beheaded by prejudice.
