Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s open acknowledgement that he and his wife used fertility treatments to conceive their two children and his candid discussions about that generated one of the most moving moments during a rally in Glendale, Arizona, when people chanted the name of his firstborn daughter, Hope.
The positive reaction to the candidate’s discussion of the topic confirms the thumbs-up that Vice President Kamala Harris got for choosing her running mate from every faction of the Democratic Party — from moderates such as Rep. Abigail Spanberger, D-Va.; progressives such as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y.; and even erstwhile conservative Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin, I-W.Va., who left the party this year.
But Tim and Gwen Walz also deserve positive attention for the way they’ve discussed their son, Gus, who came into the national spotlight thanks to a piece in People magazine, about his nonverbal learning disorder and attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder. That makes him double-neurodiverse.
It’s great Walz is exceeding standards, it sucks that they’re this low.
And I’m pretty sure the plural for Walz isn’t “Walzes”

No, I would say that is correct.
What if the Walzes’ favorite dances are waltzes?
Tim is actually a ballroom dance enthusiast, and designed his own training apparatus to help people learn to dance without a partner and without taking up any floorspace. They sell them as Walz’ Waltzes Wallses.
