Questions/Answers
Physical Disability?
I have a physical disability, I am not able to hold down a public job. I am married. When people ask me where do you work?, what should I say? I'm a full time housewife or should I say I have health problems that prevent me from working?
hey, i am a house husband, and you are a house wife. What is wrong with that? If you are a good house wife, even being disabled, you are doing better then most other women that are not disabled. Do not think about your weakness, think about the good that you can do, building a nice and happy family is a more important then anything else that i can think of. Your husband must not care that you are disabled, so why should you. He will know that you are doing the best that you can and will be happy for it. You dont need to tell anyone about your health problems, unless is your best friend or you really want to talk about it. You are more then most housewife, you are doing the job with physical disability. i am proud of you, and i dont even know you. Have a happy family life, good luck. dcw13
What are the chances of achild being born with aphysical or mental learningdisability?
I know that the chances of a child being born with down syndrome increase dramatically if the mother is over 35 - but what other factors can contribute to a child being born with a physical disability (cerebral palsy) or learning disability (autism)?
Noone can give you an exact percentage chance. Obviously if you have a family history of any of these disorders, your chances increase. But unless its a genetic disorder that doctors are able to test for (i.e., have identified the gene that causes it), and you and your partner are both tested - then they can give you a pretty good idea of what your odds are. But something like autism? Your guess is as good as anyone's.

This really depends on the type of disability. Blind people need different accomodations than do those who use a wheelchair. I recently spent 3 months in a wheelchair, and I must say that it opened my eyes to the number of barriers that our disabled friends face on a daily basis. In our town, the sidewalks are so cracked that I was nearly pitched out of the wheelchair several times when my husband was pushing my chair. Our office is supposedly ADA compliant, yet I couldn't get my wheelchair into the bathroom. If you have a differently-abled employee, ask them to give you open and honest feedback about what they need in order to operate comfortably in your workplace.
