Famous quotes containing the words parents and/or grandparents:
“The more I read and the more I talked to other parents of children with disabilities and normal children, the more I found that feelings and emotions about children are very much the same in all families. The accident of illness or disability serves only to intensify feelings and emotions, not to change them.”
—Judith Weatherly (20th century)
““Can’t” is what our grandparents said about the airplane.”
—Richard Blake, and William Cameron Menzies. Stu Kelston (Arthur Franz)
