[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Person first language means that you consider the person first, then describe the situation. Person who uses a wheelchair, not “she is in a wheelchair”. Person with a disability, not a cripple. Person who is undocumented, not an illegal alien. Person who is unhoused, not a homeless person etc.[/quote] There is pushback against person-first language coming from within the Deaf and autistic communities.[/quote] +1 My severely dyslexic kid calls himself “a dyslexic.”[/quote]
