For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for September 07, 2022

I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again, I like that teacher, I wish all teachers were like her!

Miss Edwards sure is unlimitedly capable of doing things despite her condition.

They should be inspired by her willingness

or four

I see Dawn is still going with the miniskirts suggested by Candace last year and has not returned to her old “page boy” haircut from two years ago. Elizabeth, on the other hand, is showing the effects of saying “I dunno” when Elly took her clothes shopping. Elly is not going to buy her clothes that are even the slightest bit revealing, or that show any hint that Elizabeth has clothes that do not look like hand-me-downs from Mike.

So, did Miss Edwards see all four provinces?

So, Miss Edwards—your first assignment is to write a 500-word essay on “How I Spent My Summer Vacation”, LOL!!

now that’s steering with confidence. ;)

Lynn’s Comments:

A friend who used a wheelchair surprised me when she told me all of the things she had accomplished that summer; I hadn’t done half of the things she had done! She told me that one of her favourite songs was: "Anything you can do, I can do better."

Mobility is a big big deal.

Plus, she doesn’t let anything slow her down—good role model for the kids in that school ! ! ! !

Wheelchairs aren’t always confining, they can free you as well. I’m able to go places with hubby pushing me that I couldn’t get to with no wheelchair. Mine makes up for my lack of endurance, my constant pain, my weakness, and prevents me from falling (and breaking another bone).

She’s a good “roll” model.

Ms Edwards is undaunted by any physical hindrance !

It take time for young people to learn that challenges are what make life interesting; overcoming them is what makes life meaningful.

Even better when there are two wheels.

One in a million….

Everyone should spend a day in a wheelchair, walking with a white cane, wearing noise-cancelling ear phones – experiencing the things those with a disability experience every day. That might change some people’s perspective.

Liz was VERY influenced by Miss Edwards,as readers with good memories will recall

My wheelchair friend claims he has an advantage in dangerous neighborhoods, as there’d be no street cred in mugging him.

Sounds like she almost ran her wheels off…

In panel three, why does Miss Edwards have her shirt tucked in the back under the seat cushion of her wheelchair?

Always wondered why Michael and Miss Edwards look some much alike…

There was a cartoon where a black man kicked Miss Edwards off her wheelchair. The caption read “Obama cuts disability tax”.

This is only loosely related, but this made me think of the old animated Return of the King movie, in which marching orcs sing “Where there’s a whip, there’s a way.” Lol.

Love the attitude.
