Unfortunately for Tatum, his experiences as a student with learning disabilities weren’t so positive.
The Magic Mike star revealed:

“I have never considered myself a very smart person, for a lot of reasons. You get lumped in classes with kids with autism and Down syndrome, and you look around and say, ├óΓé¼╦£Okay, so this is where I’m at.’ Or you get put in the typical classes and you say, ├óΓé¼╦£All right, I’m obviously not like these kids either.’ So you’re kind of nowhere. You’re just different.”

Wow, we can understand why Channing felt so defeated!
The actor added:

“The system is broken. If we can streamline a multibillion-dollar company, we should be able to help kids who struggle the way I did.”

We agree! There’s no excuse why kids have to struggle like Channing did!
Despite Channing’s initial hardships, it seems like he has come into his own as an actor, husband, and father.
We’re so happy that Channing has finally found his place in the world!
