This is a good question, because disabilities do affect people's ability to function in society.  People with disabilities are not treated the same as people without disabilities.  That is, in some cases people who have a disability have fewer rights or opportunities.  It can be really hard for people with disabilities to find work, get an education, or stay in their homes.  I think it is really important for people to know they have a right to equal treatment and opportunities, so it is good for them to know their rights.

I think that being able to choose for yourself whether to tell your daughter or not is really important, because she will have to live with that knowledge for the rest of her life.  I think that this would be a really important part of her identity and in some ways her future opportunities.   I think you have to consider all the facts about how she's doing in school, her interactions with other people, etc.  How is she doing with these issues right now?  Are other people noticing things about her that make them uncomfortable?   Does she know other children with disabilities?   Has she had any health problems?
