It is not wrong for a child to feel different, after all we are all unique and special beings, yet seeing a child feel less than others is something that neither a parent nor anyone can tolerate.
Charlotte Campbell’s parents did not hesitate to give her a cochlear implant when they realized that her daughter could hear nothing at all with her left ear and that she also had hearing problems, right ear and her brain to convey information.
- The camera gave her a different look at the naked eye.
- But that shouldn’t be a problem for her daughter.
- Her parents knew that wasn’t the case.
- So that little Charlotte.
- 4.
- Doesn’t feel bad.
- Her father.
- Shaved his head completely and tattooed a cochlear implant like his daughter’s.
As can be seen in the photo, cochlear implants are not just hearing aids that help improve sound and that the person can remove and place whenever they want, making them more visible and bulky. This is because implants do the work of parts of the brain that don’t work well, helping to provide the sounds that the person should interpret.
Charlotte’s father, Alistair Campbell, told the NZ Herald that he did so out of love for his daughter and that even if his hair grows, he will have no doubts about shaving again when his daughter wants or needs to see the tattoo.
The mother, for her part, is used to living with these technical devices because her mother had one child and she herself has another, Lewis, of eight, who also has to wear hearing aids to improve her hearing.
What really matters in these kinds of interventions and supports is that these children can improve their quality of life and that their condition does not limit them in their relationship with the society to which they belong, this act of love is undoubtedly wonderful and deserves to be realized. he sees around the world.

We can extract from the short the teaching that every child and adult should explore and contemplate his dreams as possible and essentially unique, no one is more or less able to do something that allows him to dream and feel good about himself.
Whatever our condition, the basic premise is the same: to feel different, but no less than the others, this is what leads us to overcome all the difficulties that may arise in a world that considers us different.
It is the ability of a father, mother, friend, brother or anyone in the world to make life easier for someone so that these peculiarities do not become a disadvantage. To highlight our individuality we favor gestures that will make us admit that we live in a world full of diversity.
Because, as we have seen in the history we share today, we can do wonderful things for others, because small actions have the ability to change the world completely.
