[quote=Anonymous]I am the mother who started the disabled swing thing. I appreciate universal design. I think the swing, the ramp, the accessible gate at the metro, the elevator, the accessible stall etc . . . are there for everyone, and that when everyone uses them it both feels more inclusive, and makes it more likely that they will build more. I do think that people without disabilities should be aware of the fact that things can be a scarce resource, and be mindful of how you use it. I am happy to wait for you to finish peeing or changing a diaper in the family restroom. I get annoyed when people decide it’s the perfect place for a 40 minute long private phone conversation. I think your toddler looks adorable playing on the ramp but keep an eye out and take him off when someone needs it to get in or out. And if someone with a disability needs it or is using it, then have patience. Because things sometimes take us more time. [/quote]
