Many
times youth with disabilities, because of the vulnerabilities
that some experience, do not get to explore enough
options and make enogh choices. But self-determination
teaches us that the road to a successful adulthood
includes the ability to be autonomous.
Autonomy is not
a skill that comes natural to everyone. You have
to realize that you have control, be able to understand
yourself and what you can do and want to do, and
be able to express yourself.
That is the key
to self-determination... |
