Listen to Sigge, 16, and his dad Martin Stengård, who talk about how Sigge has developed from being introvert and scared of being outside his comfort zone, to quite the opposite. Step by step he has increased his confidence through online gaming. Today, Sigge is one of the members of the unique para-esport team “ParaGhost”, and Martin is the manager. The team has 5 members – all living with DMD – a manager (Martin) and a coach. From being quite isolated, today Sigge has the courage to be very active and can easily present for hundreds of people! Gaming has been very beneficial to Sigge, also thanks to his dad’s involvement in ensuring a safe gaming environment. The presence of an adult/a parent, to moderate the discussions is something Martin strongly advice.
