What is a disability, special needs, a handicap?
We call it by different names, don’t we? Sometimes we even call it a condition or a syndrome.
Whatever name we end up giving it, having a disability doesn’t mean it has to be the end of the world. It isn’t the ticket to living a life that is less.
Being a parent with a special needs’ child doesn’t mean that you’ve failed. It simply means that the challenges you’ll face together are different, unique.
Still, you can make the most of that situation. Despite your child’s condition, he or she can live life to the fullest, achieve groundbreaking feats, and enjoy a world that’s different from what many “differently-abled” children experienced in the past.
