What's So Different About Disability?

Posted: 06 Feb 2013 08:31 PM PST

I was watching my children play at the park with a group today. Weather is beautiful in Florida about this time of the year. There is a group of boys at the playground that my two seem to play with regularly now. My son asked me at one point today if the boys went to high school. I guess he thought this because the boys aren't at his school. I chuckled and said they just go to a different school. Then, looking at the lot of them, I figured my son is probably about the same age as the others, but these boys towered over him. It could be my genes (most 10 year olds are bigger than me) or it could be the Down Syndrome. I'll chalk it up to him being stuck with me for a mom. As I watched, aside from the height differences, he is pretty much like the other kids and they seem to accept him as such.
