Parents of children with disabilities would do well to realize that adults with disabilities are the holders and shapers of the future that your children will walk into. When you speak over, step on and are ableist to adults with disabilities, you are doing that to very people who may have to advocate for your grown child when (not if) you are not around anymore.
