Hey @-pringles-
Thank you so much for sharing this.
I’m so happy to hear that you saved the number for 13Yarn!
An A- ..... how deadly!! Huge congratulations, you should be so proud of yourself- I can imagine how proud your parents and grandmother must have been.
It’s so great that you’re wanting to connect more with your culture and community, did you enjoy learning about this in Aboriginal studies? I remember that I really loved learning about the history and movements when I did it, there were so many powerful leaders and role-models that I learnt about and still look up to. Did any stand out for you?
Attending the museum and getting some books sounds like a great Idea. I know that you mentioned that it can be hard to concentrate whilst reading and I was wondering if you’ve tried audio books? There are also some really great podcasts that you can listen to as well, do you think this would be more helpful?
I also know that you mentioned that you have undiagnosed ADHD and was wondering whether you’ve spoken to anyone about this to get some more support? We have a really great article on ADHD that might be helpful to have a read through.
It’s so special that your dad and grandmother are both role models to you and have raised you to be proud being Aboriginal. Having people in our lives and who we look up to, is so important and makes us so proud of who we are and it’s so special that you have these relationships and strong role models to look up to.
I know that you’re wanting to learn more about and connect with your culture and was wondering whether your father or grandmother have shared much with you or whether you would feel comfortable asking them some questions?
I know that sometimes these conversations can be sensitive and difficult to have and it’s okay if you can’t have them. Remember that there’s so many other ways that you can learn about and connect with your culture.
