The word midget is a derogatory term towards little people and the dwarf community. The correct terms when referring to people of short stature are Little Person or Dwarf. No, Jockys are not considered Little people or Dwarf. Jockys are usually considered average people who tend to be on the short side. Jockys can range from 4'10 to 5'6 in height, however there are not any height requirements to be a Jocky.

Sincerely,

A mom of a Little person

Yes! My son has dwarfism. We are members of LPA (Little people of America). I have been an advocate for the Dwraf community for many years and I know what I am talking about.

Jockeys are usually fairly short because they need to weigh less for the horse to run faster. They are not midgets
