I was reading a discussion of abortion on the grounds of disability earlier this week, including the discomfort that many pro-choice people in the disabled community feel re: abortion due to prenatal testing results. In the original post was the following quote, which I thought was worth saving/sharing: "It is impossible to prepare a world for people who are not in it or of it."

It was a nice follow on to Blue/Kay/The Gimp Parade's post earlier this year about the lack of tolerance and acceptance of people with developmental and cognitive disabilities relative to people with physical disabilities, and the effect that institutionalization may have had on that.
