Reflections: I Wonder . . .

• ​​​Since one is often called “regular ed,” I wonder why the other isn’t called “irregular ed,” instead of “special ed.”

• I wonder when the system will change so people can get helpful assistance based on their needs, instead of their diagnoses.
  
• I wonder when all people who need communication devices/systems will acquire them, so they will no longer be denied one of our nation’s most precious freedoms: the right to free speech.
  
• I wonder when all people who need help with personal mobility will enjoy the freedom of independent mobility, via power wheelchairs, instead of having to be pushed by others.
  
• I wonder when we’ll realize all individuals with disabilities belong in their natural communities, instead of artificial, “special”     environments.
