Can You Take Another Child?

Both Sandra and Darrold are convinced that handicapped children are more like normal children than different. They are not to be pitied and pampered. Each child, no matter how severe his handicap, has talents of his own to develop.

“A family doesn’t have to be perfect to make room for a handicapped child,” she continues. “We’re all brothers and sisters on this earth. You wouldn’t subject your own flesh and blood brother or sister to face unfair conditions or a life of emotional poverty if you could avoid it. You’d do what you could to help.” And that is what the Hannas have done—given a new life to many of our Father’s children.
