That horrible school photo I wrote about has been re-taken. I LOVE the new photo and applaud the photography company and school for making it right!

Miles is sitting in the front row on the right being supported by his caregiver.
Wouldn’t it be great if all kids with all abilities could be this easily included? Just do a redo! Think of all the IEP meetings, mediation and court cases that could be avoided if the school districts just said “oops sorry about that, let’s try again”!
I will continue teaching my boys that all children and adults are valuable human beings regardless of their abilities or differences. But the day is coming when I will have to discuss with them that not everyone feels the same way. That will be a sad day.
