At what age did you start telling your children this? and when did you think it started to click?

The first time my son saw someone in a wheel chair was when he was a few months younger than 3 years old. Of course the wheelchair fascinated him. I had to explain to him why the man was in a wheelchair and encouraged him to walk to the person and say hi. I wanted to give my son the impression that though this man is different, he is normal in a sense that he shouldn't be stared at and gawked at and that my son could say hi and wave to him just like he likes to do with other people.

Your children are great!

this is good advice, but, its a little short to be classed as advice, there is a group called short advice where you can write all these little advices you post.
