Bless the Children e-bog

In Bless the Children, Peggy Noonan is one of the millions of people who think children born with Down syndrome are weird, ugly, sick, and probably retardeddoomed to a short life, perhaps, but a bleak future certainly. This story tells how Peggys view changes when she gives birth to a child with Down syndrome and how she fights to have her child integrated into schools with normal children and not segregated to special schools. She becomes a leader in that movement and helps create a network of support groups. Her own life is a story of victories and defeats, but in the end, she has everyone she loves close to herher family.
