Seems like a good time to throw in one of my favourite quotes from Susan
Wendell:
"Parents, especially mothers, are often the scapegoats of a society
that fails to provide adequate resources for people with disabilities,
but holds them to a high ideal of independance. Such a society
exploits mothers' caregiving, demands unlimited sacrifice from
them, and then blames them for giving too much care!!!"
(The Rejected Body, Routledge, 1996, p141)
