NATURE OF INDEPENDENCE
Independent Travel and the Blind Child
2012 PARENT TEACHER CONFERENCE
April 14, 2012
Washington State School for the Blind
Our independence comes from within. A slave can have keen eyesight, excellent mobility, and superb reading skills—and still be a slave. We are achieving freedom and independence in the only way that really counts—in rising self-respect, growing self-confidence, and the will and the ability to make choices. Above all, independence means choices, and the power to make those choices stick.
