But imagine how much worse they are doing in third world countries where the citizens taxes can barely suffice for people with disability, among other things.Dianne Weisshttp://www.caraccidentlawyerpros.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1691205078500083881.post-3324592902245303522012-08-10T10:36:52.199-04:002012-08-10T10:36:52.199-04:00Sarah,

So, one must assume that children facing such a disability aren’t necessarily getting the continued help they need into adulthood. Such individuals can’t really be left to rot, as they seem to be. At the very least, we could be doing more to help those with disabilities get a little independence back, perhaps providing more financial aid, or working to make more careers more accessible.Sarahhttp://onlinedegree.botw.org/lawnoreply@blogger.com
