Where did we put all the disabled people?

Forty something years ago, several hundred to several thousand physically disabled children disappeared and I never saw any of those disabilities again. Maybe they scattered, maybe the school was an atypical case of aggregating them in the first place, who knows. Its all speculation at this point. In the end, I don't think I'll ever find out.

They should have made it to adulthood, but I never found them. My patience is done, and I'm not getting any useful information.

I am wondering if you will ever find your brain :blink: :whistle:

Here in the UK, our record has not always been brill. In my teens i volunteered at a huge mental hospital in Lancashire. It had been built in the last century and sadly there were many physically and mentally disabled placed there, simply because there was not anywhere more suitable, Indeed a generation, if you were an unmarried mom, you got sent there, and some never came out!
I don't find thetone of sage's question helpful - but I have no idea of the history of the treatment of disability in the USA. Having said that - has he not watched the Paralympics in 2012???
