THE BIG FACTS!
We can do anything an average height person can do. We are doctors, engineers, mechanics, artists and teachers. (We may need just a well-placed stool.)
80% of people with dwarfism have average-height parents and siblings.
There are over 200 types of dwarfism.
People with dwarfism are generally 2' 8" tall to 4' 5" tall.
The word "midget" is inappropriate and offensive. Preferable terms are: having dwarfism, short stature, little person and a persons name is always the most preferred.
