One in five households care for a child with a disability. Laura Wifler and Erin Smalley are included in this count as they are both mothers to daughters with special needs. Over the years they have learned how to navigate parenting through the lens of disabilities. Some days involve going to physical therapy or undergoing surgery, other days include coping with a school bully or a difficult diagnosis. Laura and Erin remind us that the smallest acts of inclusivity, such as a kind word or a friendly smile, can make all the difference.
