In schools, workplaces, and public spaces, individuals who request support may face skepticism, bias, or the harmful assumption that accommodations provide an “unearned advantage.” These narratives do real damage—not only to people with disabilities, but to our collective understanding of equity and access.

While some children leap out of bed eager for the day ahead, others feel butterflies in their stomachs, needing extra reassurance before stepping into the classroom. Both responses — and everything in between — are completely normal.
