Sighted and blind people love the messages. One has a picture of a world with silhouettes of a person with a cane, a person with a guide dog, and a person pointing in the opposite direction with the saying "Where in the World is Over There." The other one says "I can parent with my eyes closed." Both have the NFB of Massachusetts logo on the front and are available in different colors and sizes.
