CRIPPLE? (CMT Awareness Month 2015 - DAY 8)

To start off week 2 of CMT Awareness Month I thought I'd address the title of my blog... again, as I've had a couple of people questioning the appropriateness of the word "Cripple" ... again.

So instead of repeating myself again, you can read a blog post that I wrote this time last year on the subject. Click HERE or below:

CRIPPLE - WHAT'S IN A WORD   
   

The moral of the story here really is to just accept people no matter what labels they chose for themselves, and to realise that so called "offensive words" only have power of someone puts the power behind it!
