[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s absolutely appropriate and welcome to call the parents and explain how your home is set up, inquire about what kinds of accommodations their child needs and whether you can offer those accommodations. It’s also appropriate for your daughter to have this conversation directly with her friend. Explaining how your home is set up is essential information in determining whether they can/will want to accept the invitation. It’s not rude or inappropriate to be direct. Being direct about asking what she needs is important so they don’t feel like they’re a burden about needing accommodations and they don’t have to be anxious if they choose to go to an event about what will happen. [/quote] And this is true for all disabilities and not just for people who need wheelchairs.[/quote]
