X user Varsha shared a Twitter thread documenting how her daughter helped another kid. “Around 1.5 months ago I saw a message in a group. A mom asking for help. Her specially-abled daughter needed a Grade 4 kid as a reader writer for her final exam. On a whim, I asked my 4th grader daughter if she would like to be one,” Varsha wrote.

“And there began a spate of phone calls, looking up the exam calendar and after a night of rumination and assurances that 'saying no won't make you a bad person nor me unhappy or disappointed, but do this only if you want to, my little girl decided to take this on,” she added.

In the next few posts, Varsha documented how her daughter prepared herself. Usually a late riser, she even got up early on the day of the exam “without making any fuss”. Varsha also shared about her meeting with the specially-abled child and her parents. She concluded her thread by urging parents to encourage their kids to help “a special kid as a writer/reader/unconditional friend.”

Anand Mahindra re-shared the entire post on X along with words of appreciation. “A small, simple story. But one that makes our world a better place. Thank you for sharing it, Varsha,” he wrote.
