[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She’s 4. She saw something unexpected and she laughed. She doesn’t understand disability. She’s 4! You did the right thing to talk to her about it, of course. Next time, though, the better talking point is “her legs work differently.” Not “her legs don’t work.” The woman with a disability isn’t broken. She’s different. And we don’t laugh at difference.[/quote] Some people’s legs don’t work at all. If this woman walked like a penguin then my guess is her hips/and/or her lower spine don’t have the rotation they’re supposed to. They don’t work right. [/quote]
