Things to Know About Riley Stone:
• At age fourteen, Riley founded the Senior Friends Program through her church youth group. The group paired middle- and high-school-aged students with nursing home residents for companionship and fun. The group still thrives today.
• At age fifteen, Riley taught herself to read Braille in her spare time after volunteering at a camp for blind youth.
• Also at age fifteen, Riley briefly reentered therapy, but voluntarily quit after she realized she felt more intelligent than the therapist, attributing most of her issues to being overly type A.
• Her parents eagerly agreed with her self-diagnosis.
• Riley has standing prescriptions that she can call in for, however, and a therapist who will see her when needed. Of course, Riley thinks this is all quite amusing, as she has personally diagnosed at least twelve other people at her school who need therapy more than she does, one of whom is a teacher.
