I would add that minority women suffer on two fronts. Among many minorities, any kind of disability is understated or made invisible because it is seen as a failure of the mother. Also, many of them simply do not have the time, knowledge or information to deal with an appeal process and are likely to passively give up. That, of course, is dreadful for the child as well as for the mother.
