For me the most interesting thing was Bens relationship with his mother. She was there to support him from the very beggining and never stopped. Their bound seemed really strong, which suprises me because teenagers are usually problematic. His mother admitted she cries sometimes, but she goes to her room so she can stay confident around him.
I belive blind children should be taught echolocation at school because it can help them a lot. Obviously the should be taught other techniques as well, because echolocation won’t work in every situation. It’s best to show them some ways to be more independent and let them pick which one they prefer.
