96 Positive behaviour support: Getting it right from the start - Facilitators reference manual Some homebuyers have complained to The Age that they were never briefed about the reality of living next to intellectually disabled residents. Others say there was no mention of disabled neighbours at all. There is an argument, of course, that homebuyers should not expect to be even notified of the presence of intellectually disabled neighbours because to raise it is discriminatory in itself. But for some with long involvement in caring for the disabled, being as frank and up front as possible about living cheek by jowl with intellectual disability is the only way. They say tensions now developing were inevitable. The Government was warned. "I think Walker under the guidance or direction of the Department of Human Services was encouraged to underplay the behaviours of the residents," says one professional saddened that the KRS residents are the subject of controversy on their own turf. One resident, for instance, has long struggled with his pants slipping down. Like Dorothy and her trees, he continues to behave as he always did at Kew. It's the world around him that has changed. His parkland home is now a smart housing estate. With narrow streets, no fences, and missing footpaths, close contact with his new neighbours was always on the cards. Says one source familiar with the KRS residents: "What were they (the Government) thinking, that all of a sudden because you put him in a house there that his pants would stop slipping down?" A well-placed source says that in light of complaints about the KRS residents, it has been made clear to carers that the residents should be less conspicuous. "Don't do anything that might upset the local community," is how the source summarised the message… …There is a real fear that an experiment that tore down institutional barriers may yet lead to the saddest of paradoxes at Kew. "It's the worst thing I could imagine," says a seasoned Kew local. "There's a handful of KRS residents who have lived on there forever; great characters who wander around the site which is their home. It would be an absolute tragedy if the limited freedom they have is taken from them." Royce Millar is an Age investigative reporter.
