Children with Limb Differences

Children with limb differences have variations in the size, shape, or presence of arms or legs due to congenital conditions or injuries. These differences can affect function and mobility, but many children adapt well with support and therapy. Advances in prosthetics and adaptive devices help improve independence and participation in daily activities and sports. It’s important to recognize their strengths and provide encouragement and appropriate resources to promote confidence and inclusivity. Each child's experience is unique, and with proper care, they can lead full, active lives.
