I know only too well having aspergers and other
intellectual learning difficulties, that the misconceptions of difference can be vast, and others often so wrongly judge far to often the media portray what most want to hear, not always fact. I truly hope now this bill has been passed, that the minority groups will be included more and discriminated against less, and bring NZ into this century.

As a parent who has a child who is differently minded/able it gives me so much hope for the next generation and maybe it will help repair some of the damage already caused from narrow mindedness and ignorance… Alyson Bradley
