I don't consider Cerebal Palsy a "problem". I guess that's what one would consider adapting.

I like the way you think. A "problem" is only problematic if you let it be so. That is one of the major differences between children and adults. Oftentimes, children with "disabilities" will not let themselves be held back, yet an adult will think of themselves as disabled, and act accordingly.

As a related aside, I just started an excellent new book that is very inspirational: Neil Cavuto's More Than Money: True Stories of People Who Learned Life's Ultimate Lesson.
