Not Special Needs, But Special Skills


An MSNBC report today described a global "quiet movement" towards embracing the things people with disabilities can do rather than focusing on the things they can't.

According to the report, certain companies actively seek potential employees with certain disabilities, such as Asperger's Syndrome, an Autism spectrum disorder.  Often times, the symptoms of a disorder that make social interaction difficult can actually prove useful in the workplace.

Sing a song of celebration today to remind you and your child of all the things he or she can do!
