^^^ LOL

My middle son attends a developmental preschool. One of the reasons that we (I) chose to enroll him there was because it was important to me for my kids to see other kids as just kids, no matter what the difference is- so I like the person-centric language.

And I have noticed that my son has become incredibly understanding about differences between kids without labeling or even passing judgement. I could actually learn allot from him (and he's only 4).

Anyway, his school is big on the person-centric language to the point that to hear it phrased other ways now just sounds odd to me.
