As a mother of a child with a disability, sometimes it is hard to deal with certain situations. That's doesn't mean that we don't try our best to do what we think is right. I have always made sure my child learns right from wrong but the process definitely takes longer because sometimes the lesson doesn't click like it does with a non-disabled child of the same age.
My mother has been the biggest hindrance to my child learning and thus, used to let her get away with things, using the excuse that because she's disabled, she doesn't understand. No. She does understand. You just want to place her in bubble wrap so that you, yourself can continue to undermine my parenting. This is just one of the reasons why I haven't spoken to my mother in over six years.
So, sometimes it's not the parents, but it is other family that prevents the parents from succeeding in teaching the child.
Additionally, what we often see isn't always the whole picture. And for the record, it is my personal opinion, but I don't believe in using restraints on kids. I believe you are referring to those harnesses also called child leashes. Children are not pets to be leashed. I seriously cringe whenever I see a kid on one of those.
