They need to find appropriate ways to express them and sometimes we have to help them do that. Kids are messy, sloppy, and clumsy. They spill things, forget things, lose things. They whine, they argue, they complain. They get angry, scared, and sad.
Kids feel small and vulnerable much of the time and their feelings are hurt very easily.
They need to hear us and see us treat them with respect, and fairness, and pride, and joy. Kids are a lot of fun, and that's got nothing whatsoever to do with having a disability.
