How to make choices when the medical community pushes for certain interventions.

Finding the balance on how much to “push” our kids and letting them be gloriously themselves.

What it is like for disabled adults to listen to parents of disabled children talk about caregiving.

Things that contribute to parents of disabled kids and disabled adults to be at odds.

“It’s hard for me to feel a lot of sympathy or empathy when people talk about how hard it is to be a caregiver. Because as a caree I don’t get a lot of sympathy. And there’s no caree support group, where we can go and complain about our caregivers.”
