Phobia




A Deaf fifth grader was eliminated from the National Spelling Bee after misspelling this word whose definition is fear of long word:

"Hippopotomonstrosesquippedaliophobia"

She recently got a perfect score on SAT, already been accepted to attend Gallaudet but she rather be  playing with her friends while having a normal childhood which is understandable.
Her proud Deaf parents has been very  supportive, despite all the media distractions, allowing her to be curious,  to explore the world and accept new challenges.
I agreed that she has a lot potential as she is our future.
