What happened: Twitter issued an apology on Thursday evening after coming under fire from the disability community for testing its new voice feature without support for those who are deaf, hard of hearing, or who have low vision.

We’re sorry about testing voice Tweets without support for people who are visually impaired, deaf, or hard of hearing. It was a miss to introduce this experiment without this support.

The Frontlines: For people with disabilities, Twitter’s decision to launch a new feature before it could used by

What It's Like Being Young With Crohn's Disease
About a year ago, I was coming out of surgery for my Crohn’s disease. At 21, I had made the difficult but necessary decision to remove my entire colon and live with a permanent ostomy. I was hopeful, prepared for battle and so well-supported. Truly, I handled that surgery about as well as possible. I don’t think I cried more than once. My main role, in fact, felt like making sure everyone around me was comfortable with the idea of this surgery. Even as a young kid, I was always complimented on “how well you handle your illness!” and “ You seem so on top of things!” After all, I am a senior college student with 323,987 things to do, a color-coded planner, huge dreams, and a go-getter attitude to take on the world. Most would think I do indeed have my life together. Well, guess what? Sometimes having it all together is overrated. Sometimes neglecting your emotions for the comfort of others isn’t the right thing to do. Sometimes you need to feel without apology.

I Wish I Would Have Known More About Miscarriage Before Having One
The moment I realized I was pregnant, I tried to dial my emotions down. I used the term “cautiously optimistic” because I wanted to make sure that I was not overly attached to my pregnancy in case I would become one in four people who miscarry. I only told a handful of friends and always made sure to include the sentence “We are excited, but I’m only telling people who could support me through a miscarriage right now.” Even knowing the statistics, and my increased likelihood because of my ongoing battle with PCOS and hypothyroidism, I was still excited.

The Infinite Benefits of Including Students With Disabilities
I was in my daughter’s middle school for a meeting with some of her teachers. As I was walking down a hallway with a few of them they stated, “Look, there is Yassy! She is cycling away. We hear she loves to go in that room and ride the bike for the whole gym class. She is in great shape.”  I looked in the room and there weren’t many other kids in there. It was new, with a glass wall, so I saw her and took this photo. It is blurry because I was trying to be quick, so as not to distract her.

Political Candidates’ Use of Humor on Twitter Can Backfire
Communication Research Reports, show that people were more likely to view messages using humor as inappropriate for a political candidate they didn’t know. This led participants to rate a candidate who used humor as less credible than one who didn’t — and less likely to get their vote.“Candidates should be cautious about using humor on social media,” said Olivia Bullock, co-author of the study and a doctoral student in communication at Ohio State University.

Tips for Spending Quality Time Outdoors With Your Child With a Disability
It is finally starting to get nicer outside. Well, some days. We have had so, many storms here, it is ridiculous! And unfortunately, with COVID-19, many places are closed — and rightly so. The safety of our children and ourselves is paramount. Our children both have disabilities. Alex (21 mo) had a perinatal stroke and Benji, 4, has autism. They are sick of being cooped up. We have seen an uptick in aggression and hyperactivity because we have been alone and indoors for so long! So if we can’t go places, what the heck can we do outside? Won’t the kids get bored after like five minutes? Not with these ideas!

And most of us haven’t had the chance to be with our child for such a long uninterrupted time (aka 24/7) since our kiddos were teeny tiny. And even if we have been, well, there just aren’t as many places to take your children as there were before.
