In a recent article on Statesman.com, the mother of a boy with spina bifida and cerebral palsy who could not access a playground in his wheelchair commented:
“He goes out and he sits and watches as the other kids play. The only reason we’ve tolerated it this long is there are such good people and kids at the school, they come and play with him and try to bring him balls … every kid wants to be able to go independently where they can and not have to rely on everyone else to incorporate them.”
