A psychologist described it as 'one leg shorter than the other' because there is nothing wrong with having short legs or 2 long legs but having one short and one long would really be difficult to walk around with if no accomidations were made.
chills, right?
Wow! That illustration was exactly what I needed to illuminate it.
It really does give me chills. Have I really been scolding and resenting what I perceive to be inordinate stubbornness or simple laziness in a child who may in fact be suffering from a real disability?
Ouch.
What to do? I take it there is not a go-to handbook for this either.
