Cookie monster....
Have you ever noticed that Cookie Monster has nystagmus and strabismus? When I was little I just thought it was goofy that his eyes were all over the place. But he also has poor eye-hand coordination...with all the special attention Sesame street gives disabled and differently-abled kids and grown-ups, I do wonder if this is a coincidence or if they really intended for one of their muppets to have special needs. Hmm....

LOL...LOL. I never really thought about it, but you are so right.
I have also heard people question if Max from "max and ruby" is autistic...and I seriously think Twist from "the fresh beat band" ( new show on Nick) is ADHD at the minimum.
A friend and I were discussing a few weeks ago how so many special needs Moms can ID similar issues in other kids. I can spot possible sensory issues across the playground since my boys have them, and any kid over 2 who drools a lot HAS to have oral-motor issues.
