We were watching Toy Story 2 with our older daughter (non-BPI) tonight and I never thought much about it before my other daughter (ROBPI) was born. In the beginning part of the movie Woody gets his arm torn and it doesn't "work" anymore so Andy doesn't want to take him to Cowboy camp. When I watched the movie before I never thought much about it, but now I see it as Woody having a BPI. (LOL) I thought back to when we first found out how severe our daughter's injury was and all my concerns about how she would be picked on by other kids and excluded from participating in things she wanted to. It's amazing how this injury changes the way that you look at things or even how you see things in kids animated movies! Just sharing.

That is funny that you said that. Zeke loves Buzz and Woody and he has LOBPI but he never has said anything about Woody and his arm before. Maybe the next time we watch it I'll mention it. Renee
