““Adam wondered where Tim got his resilience. Tim said it began with his parents. Tim's dad had a knack for reframing painful events. One day Tim came home from school upset that kids were staring and asking what was in his ear. His father gave hijm a tip: next time it happened, Tim could press his hearing aid, throw a punch in the air, and shout, "Yes! Cubs are now up two to one in the ninth." Tim gave it a try,and the kids were jealous that he was listening to the game during a boring class. In high school, Tim leaned in for a kiss at the end of a date and his hearing aid started beeping loudly. His father told him not to worry about it: "She's probably saying to her mom right now, 'I kissed boys before tonight and I've seen fireworks - but I've never heard sirens.””
