How do you frame disability?
How you frame the concept of disability has a big impact on your response to disability. For some people, disability means a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities. Others believe disability is a result of environments not being designed with the needs of everyone in mind. Still others feel disability is a deficit of any kind that involves a physical or mental problem.
