https://goo.gl/VNQSjz Robert Kidd, 9歲的蘇格蘭小男孩，在體操項目贏得了全英冠軍。 - 從4歲開始拜師學習，一週至少20小時的苦練 - 六項全能：floor, pommel, still rings, vault, parallel bars and high bars - 夢想著有一天能成為英國奧運代表隊在10歲時，因練習摔斷了骨頭 https://upload.cc/i1/2018/08/17/injIWS.jpg

Robert的父親，寫給我的message中，提到： ” It’s a nice time to spend with the children. My two are also into sport and it has been a bit of a journey with Robert. He was a very good gymnast (British champion for his age) but broke his arm very badly last year. This really affected him mentally and he gave it up, which was the right decision but a very difficult one to make. ” （請忽略中年大叔忙於跨國工作，抽空寫message的文法錯誤) 其中，輕描淡寫地帶過Robert從此有心靈障礙，放棄了體操運動但，我自己google，又發現了下面這則新聞： https://goo.gl/raFLVC 10歲的Robert，在傷後努力復健，又拿了個冠軍 @@ - 決定終止體操生涯(如果爸爸沒有認知錯誤，也不排除媽媽+小孩瞞著工作忙碌老爸的可能性=_=#)，但決定 ends with glory instead of failure(才10歲耶！@@) 超勵志的！！！尤其Robert不是什麼第三世界的窮苦小孩，只有練體操一條出路他的家庭堪稱富裕(畢竟老爸有能力，又辛苦工作) 但能有這樣的毅力和決心，真正另人動容 == 昨天早上，帶女兒去學游泳(教練1打4) 不知道為什麼，上到一半，女兒就叫我，說要離開課程了我確認她沒有身體不適後(眼眶含淚，只是搖頭)，尋求教練的許可，讓她坐在池畔開始講Robert的故事給她聽說完後，問她願不願意回到池中學習她點點頭，回去上課了… == 在我和Robert父親提到，Robert對我女兒的正面影響後，老爸回我的message: "What a beautiful story!! I’m glad that she went back in, swimming is such a great skill to have and being in the pool is such great fun. I’ve sent a photo, as you can imagine we are very proud of him, especially as his had was paralysed for three months with nerve damage. It’s amazing what great doctors and a dedicated physio can do." (請忽略文法/拼字錯誤) 三個月的神經麻痹啊！！！這個小小孩是怎麼撐過來的？ (英國的醫療很貴，老爸的錢應該也噴了不少…) 這個真人真事，真的很勵志啊！！！ -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 140.112.73.222 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/tutor/M.1534451078.A.A4E.html ※ 編輯: marra (140.112.73.222), 08/17/2018 05:09:51
