Anne Grunsted, The Mighty - February 6, 2015
I am posting this as a followup to last week’s item on parents of disabled kids meeting … or not being interested in meeting … disabled adults. Ms. Grunsted’s encounter was by chance, not design. Maybe that makes it even more valuable. I also want to note that personally, I would probably shy away from overly arranged meetings. Organization tends to introduce artificiality. Arranged meet ups don’t bother everyone though, and I do think they are far preferable to the current situation … where parents of disabled kids, and adults with disabilities, seem to occupy parallel, never overlapping worlds.
