If we can change the language, we can change the view, and since language is the mode used to construct thought, it is possible to do... over a very long time.<br /><br />It is important to speak in terms of the person first and then the identifier. But as you can tell from my name, I don't mind the ds first because it is also true that when you go to great lengths to define something in a way that is too composed (mama of a baby with ds), you do draw more attention to the part you are trying to make secondary.ds.mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08631570001473985562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794485431191324681.post-9934732597749734032009-05-27T20:50:38.167-04:002009-05-27T20:50:38.167-04:00I find it interesting that the two communities tak...I find it interesting that the two communities take different approaches to what I know to be called "People First Language."<br /><br />Thanks for sharing and for showing me a different perspective. It means a lot coming from another parent who shares in this journey.Crittlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08868628035597050680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2794485431191324681.post-88616905139102710612009-05-27T16:06:42.870-04:002009-05-27T16:06:42.870-04:00Thank you LT.

I don't often comment on your blog (it makes me feel like I'm stalking you), but I wanted to comment that your writing is beautiful and insightful. You make me think harder when I look at the children around me. You make me appreciate the difficult choices I face as a parent, how much harder they might be, or might become. <br /><br />Thank you.Little Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13715294251776498308noreply@blogger.com
