Indeed Hugo. It’s awful that she has a disabled family member. It is no better than she feels entitled to have others incur substantial costs to achieve “equality” for that disabled person. The unfortunate thing about being disabled is that you just won’t be equal to others. Swiiming pool lifts and the like won’t change that.

>“I am so sick and tired of hearing people like Olson … the Walter Olsons of the world” writes Ellen Seidman [Parents mag]
