"content": "Despite his disability, Johnson has shown talent in arts and crafts. He used to make and sell key rings to tourists in Watamu to support his mother financially. However, he lost his motor skills and was unable to work again. So, he taught himself to cook and help with household chores because of the increased difficulties faced by his mother in taking care of the family. His grandmother then had to move from Nyeri to Watamu to assist. On the other hand, Johnson’s younger brother felt neglected due to the attention required by Johnson from his mother. This has affected his performance and has led to a silent war between the brothers. The younger feels Johnson is favoured. These important details are often overlooked when we look at legislation, yet they significantly impact the home environment. The challenges faced by this family have been accumulating overtime, with the mother unable to focus on her work and developing high blood pressure in the process as she dedicates her attention to taking care of her children. Sadly, this Bill can only solve some things, with hope that other Hon. Members in this House will also push disability responsive legislation that helps to solve other issues."
