Good post.
Very well-written, and a wake-up call (hopefully).  Hope to read more of your work.  Welcome!

Interesting anecdote.

Some parents need

parental guidance

themselves.

We went through the same thing when my daughter had to wear a helmet.  The thing of it is, I wouldn't have minded the questions either.  Then the next time they saw a kid with a corrective helmet, they would know. 

Now, as a parent, what always bothered me is my son pointing, not his curiosity.

We often don't give kids enough credit.

Rainbow Writer,

Thank you so much for such a wonderfully funny, yet informative and eye opening post that everyone should read -- NOT JUST PARENTS.  I got such a good laugh at your way of putting things, that I think you are going to be just the right "spokesperson" to get your point across to those who feel anything but comfortable around those with disabilities.  Thanks for the great laugh -- AND the education.  Great post!
