Teach Your Children about Disabilities

 
It only takes a little time to educate children about disabilities. My son is autistic and if parents would only talk to their children about others and their differences I wouldn't have to explain to much to my own child about others lack of knowledge. If that sounds mean it's not intended to. My son gets his feelings hurt and doesn't quite understand why people are so rude to him. Honestly these people just don't know all about autism and that's why we have to advocate and educate.

  1. Absolutely! I couldn't agree more. My parents always told my brother and I about disabilities, we had several foster siblings who had some. growing up I always felt that if people only knew and understood then people with disabilities might not be outcasted as much as they can be. Its such a shame, a lot of people are missing out on some really awesome, and cool people.

  2. People judge what they dont understand. Yes, I completly agree that all children with or with out a disability should be aware and educated of the different disabilties out there.

  3. keep talking to others, your words are strong and should be heard. People need to learn about disabilities and teach the next generation that there is nothing wrong with the person and they can do anything if they set their mind to it!
