Russian special needs girl barred from dancing at kindergarten concert as ‘it’s for normal children'

A girl with special needs hasn’t been allowed to take part in the performance in a Russian kindergarten by the facility manager, her mom says, alleging the manager qualified the concert as one “for normal children.” Authorities are looking into the incident.
