DQ 1 Person-centered thinking places people and their capabilities, interests, and gifts before their diagnoses or treatments. For example, a child diagnosed with cerebral palsy would not be called “the child in the wheelchair” but instead would be recognized by the same traits that any other child might be: “Tommy likes trains and always remembers everyone’s birthday.” Could this practice of person-centered thinking be beneficial to other areas of diversity as well? Why?
DQ 2: Ageism refers to prejudice and prejudicial treatment against people older than a certain age (usually in the mid-50s). What do you think is the most common expression of ageism?
