Disabled parents, non disabled people who want to inform themselves and understand normal disabled peoples lives, please please watch this on BBC Iplayer.

It follows a married couple, man and woman,both with Cerebral Palsy who have children.Rather than taking a leaf from dreadful media journalising such as the likes of the Ch 4 "undatables" or the various god awful reports as found in The Sun, both depicting disabled as freaks or Scroungers, the BBC have finally got it right.

Disabled people get together and have sex and make normal parents, doing normal baby rearing tasks. No look at the freak parents, more a look at normal living but respecting these guys for doing a job any able bodied person does but showing the public the reality, we parent but we find clever ways of doing normal parenting tasks and you know what we have the same exhausted days as well counterparts, we don't have an entorage of carers funded by state etc,we parent ourselves and boy do we do it well.

Well done BBC for as I say, getting a great bit of journalising out rather than dreadful Nazi propaganda against disabled, badly reported drivel that frankly insults the intelligence of UK people!
