Friends Already

Have you ever wanted to say hello to someone with a disability but didn’t because you were too nervous? Take it from us, you don’t need to feel nervous at all! Just talk to him or her like they’re already one of your friends! Do you look down at the ground when you ask your friends to play? Or ask their mom what their favorite color is? No, of course not! You talk directly to them, and that’s just how you should talk to someone with a disability! There may be times when you need to talk slower so they can read your lips, or louder so they can hear you. But most importantly, treat them like you would any of your other friends! When we treat everyone with kindness and respect (like Jesus instructs us), being a friend is super easy!
