Proves how excluded Disabled people are. A video of a child finally being able to go on a swing at this age shouldn't fill your heart with joy, it should be filled with anger. How many generations of Disabled kids have to excluded from basic experiences before we see change?

It’s a boy PLAYING on a PLAYGROUND. It’s supposed to be what children DO. Why is a disabled child doing it heartwarming? There shouldn’t be a “gee whiz” (or “poor them”) response when a community finally makes a playground accessible and it gets used.

I am a parent of a child with special needs and have worked in special education for 30 years. These kids just want to be normal, not seen as
#inspirationporn (a hashtag developed by the disability community). I’m compassionate in that I see these kids as KIDS. -
I have a brother on the spectrum and a sister in law with downs. I wish more people would see it as heartwarming because then my family would have been treated better by strangers. That's my experience, We just have different POV.
-
I just wish they’d treat our kids like people.

Thank you. I've always wanted a trophy.

You all like participation trophies, right?

Are you reading off a script? This interaction sounds suspiciously similar.

#HoggWash is a liar. Guess he should always stay scripted. When off script he drops the F-bomb or tells the truth and uncovers his lies.#cantmakethisstuffup https://youtu.be/37zoQLgqEy0 -
I wanted to insult you or something, but your existence will suffice. Thanks.
