Outside of Normal Marcia: Well, you know that’s a tough one because there are so many definitions of what normal is. I guess probably?a disability in my definition would include somebody who cannot complete the skills that are expected of them, whether that means communication or the physical skills or the learning, like we talked about the learning disabilities, so someone who cannot complete the expectations that are outlined within whatever program that they are in. In the second interview, Marcia added, I believe it truly is someone who is outside of the norm in completing skills.

Well, I guess the one thing I would react to in that definition is the word deficiency because it seems like it has a negative connotation. But when I think of disability, I’m trying to think that if there’s any examples that I can think of where it’s normal ?where there isn’t something that’s lacking like vision, hearing, dexterity, so yeah, you know I’m not sure if I can come up with a different word that’s not?not negative. I guess, well alteration, alteration could be non-negative sounding?instead of a deficiency, an alteration.
