Strengths and Limitations, Abilities and Disabilities

Thoughts for the Week:

We all want children to have respect for people, including those who have disabilities. For a number of reasons, that can be a special challenge for preschoolers. When we model warm and caring acceptance of others -- recognizing strengths and trying to understand limitations, we are helping children know that we appreciate all of who they are.

-- Fred Rogers
