I don't know the producers or actors, or what they promote. So for the four to six hours per day some kids watch TV, we play:) Folks that don't watch TV are generally are more involved and active in our world, interact with their children and family members more, and consider original ideas.

Why are there no places with a special room or with games/toys/rides adapted for children with special needs? We are not few in number, sadly, yet we are completly underrepresented when it comes to …
