We’ve all felt that sense of anxiety as we prepare to bring our children with DS to a new activity. How much can we expect the people in charge to support them? Are staff members prepared to support a child with a disability? Is the parent responsible for sticking around and teaching everyone else how to interact with their child? How can inclusive spaces work if the adults in charge aren’t equipped to support all the children present?
The list of questions goes on! And we don’t have all the answers, but we do know that by the time we bring our kids to these inclusive spaces (that they deserve to be in!), we’re already exhausted. So if you’ve felt this way (maybe at dance class or summer camp or church or school or where ever you were this summer), then be sure to join us for this conversation on what to expect from inclusive settings, how to ask for it, and when to move on.
