Criticism

edit

I was hoping to read some criticism of the idea, which I'm sure exist; but I don't know the field well enough myself. Can anyone update the entry with such information? 96.49.46.198 (talk) 00:00, 9 December 2012 (UTC)Reply

Take a look at Social model of disability. It looks to like this concept is simply the process of acting upon the consequences of accepting the Social model of disability - i.e. once the Social model is accepted Normalisation is the logical consequence. Strangely this article didn't even have links to either the Social model of disability or the Medical model of disability articles until I inserted them a few minutes ago.

Definition of normalization

edit

I was wondering if any of the first paragraph of this definition of normalization is a direct quote because it reads like one. If not I would like to make an edit to it. Is this a direct quote? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mattokamagic (talkcontribs) 20:07, 16 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Hi Mattokamagic, the first sentence is marked as a direct quote and referenced, so better not to edit that part. Rather add your edit elsewhere in the lead paragraph, and don't forget to cite your source. Roger (Dodger67) (talk) 20:38, 16 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Misconceptions

edit

Can someone change this section to either list misconceptions (like mentioned) or change the title completely to summarise the topic. It doesn't make sense.
