If kids cant notice the strings on puppets, how can they notice that she only has one full arm?

I think its the parents that are "scared" not the kids  >:(

Narrow minded to say the very least. Kids accept people that are 'different', maybe ask a question or 2 and then get to the important task of playing, I doubt any of these kids though any more about it after they first realised she had a hand/fore arm missing.

From what i have seen/heard kids have no preconseptions(sp) or hang ups - wish adults (me included) could be so open minded

Doh!   :-[

As for the story, I heard this on the radio today and I was shocked! To the presenter in questions credit, it seemed like she really didnt care that there were some small minded people out there! She just wanted to do a good job and her disability should have nothing to do with it.

Well im sorry but i dont like watching TV when she"s on...lets be fair its just another ""lets be seen too be equal"" from the programme makers.

Oh and my kids watch the show she"s on and i doubt for one second its her presenting skills that got her the job.

i work for a well known disability charity,and i generally find that kids dont care much about a persons disability,adults are so much more narrow minded.

i agree
if adults are narrow minded it will soon pass down to the kids which is then when the bullying starts
