    Love this man- father, and how he articulates his parenting and understanding of his child. His words should be shared worldwide, maybe then someone will hear and respond appropriately. Our world should be wecoming of all human beings, i know we are able, to enable xx

    A great perspective that every parent (and everyone who cares about our society’s children) should understand.

    ❤ I thought I would just let you know I have listened to this talk about 20 times - each time I feel I am struggling to navigate life with a child with a disability - your talk has inspired me and your truth has helped me to feel less alone and helped me to stay on course ❤ thank you x

    Great talk. So many of our experiences have been similar, such as restructuring our work lives around caregiving. Administrators need your know that when my child falls off the edge of their measurement scales, it’s their issue, not my child’s. She is perfect as she is.

    WOW! I am also a parent who speaks out to help other families navigate this world and the individual needs that are hard to get from the government resources. Our needs are great and it is hard for others without these special people in their lives to understand that the cost of a special chair is not because of extravagant tastes but physical needs from misshapen bodies who have had to go without services needed.. I love these simple explanations.

    Yes but children with a disability are a small minority. We can't as a society build a world based on what a small minority needs nor can we neglect the majority in order to do so. Nor can we describe disabilities as perfection because they are the exact opposite of that.

      Everyone becomes disabled at some point in their lives, and there should be timely access to necessary supports for all who need it.
