Amy Webb -- Teaching Children to Love Differences
from The Strategerist · host George W. Bush Presidential Center
Amy Webb's life changed in unexpected ways when her daughter was born with disabilities. Like every mother, she wants her child to grow up experiencing all the things a child should: playing on a playground with friends, exploring a museum, going on a family vacation. She learned, though, that not every experience is created with accessibility in mind, and that even interactions with friends can be a challenge -- so she wrote "When Charley Met Emma" and "Awesomely Emma" to help parents approach their kids.
