Narrow-minded parents scare mother of disabled son...


There's been a right to-do about Cerrie who presents CBeebies because she's missing part of her lower arm. My lovely three-year-old niece was born without her right hand. Whilst playing in a ball pool over the Christmas hols (watched by her grandma), she was surrounded by other little kids who had a good look at her affected arm. In response to their questions, my niece replied "It's alright, it no hurt!" whereupon they all ran off to play together.

And that's all I have to say about that.

Good day to you.

Hey Elinor,

Sorry typos made me delete the post...having gone through al of the same emotions, I want to make less and less of a deal about the disability, it ain't the circus after all. How about getting rating because of the content.....yeah ok, I haven't had my coffee yet.

Typos or not, Tania, it's always good to see you!

Yes, I know what you mean about the circus. Jordan is no more defined by his disability than he is by his liking Harry Potter.

Now go and have some coffee.
