okay so today we are scheduled to talk about developmental disabilities so you might be saying what exactly is going to talk about there's actually there's a lot to talk about and we're going to start actually with a little bit of discussion of why there are developmental disabilities in this world and I'm going to ask you for your opinion to start let's start with you why do you think there are people born with developmental disabilities there here there is a world they're present but they're often unable to comprehend but they're often unable to comprehend the world around them and the world around them is all for now unable to comprehend that so why does God put it here ELISA shirt of saying what I learned for Braille by : okay my feelings are and it has to do again with our relationship with God it's not so much for the person who's development fully challenged but it's for us we do have something okay so that idea is that the developmental disabilities the person the child or the results with person the child or the results with developmental disabilities is someone who brings out a lot in up right so studies have found for example that families with children with developmental disabilities have often through that disability become a much closer family unit because everyone in the family at all times knows they have to pitch in they're going on a trip someone's got to be with Jake and they take turns and there's a sort of sense of we're in it together and then really draw the family closer together it
