PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES

I think that we need tolerance, deep understanding, and compassion. I know that there are people that are judgmental and and insensitive; they are easy to judge at at the same time, they make these people a laughing matter.

I have a cousin who is deaf and dumb from childhood. I never ever acted rudely or harshly with him.

@LLavish There are people out there with disabilities and they are some of the nicest people I know and then there are those that are bitter.

I am someone with a mental disability and I know first hand how cruel people can be. Most of the time, people are afraid of the things they don't understand so instead of trying to learn, they will ridicule and judge unkindly. I always try to teach people about my disability in order to help get rid of the stigma that comes from having a mental disorder. We are not all crazy psychotic individuals, we just understand the world a little differently.

There are some parents with sons with disabilities that threat then just like a normal kid, I admire that because I find if better for the kid to grow up felling normal and not thinking that they can't do what they want to do in life... I bet it can be very difficult to keep a smile and a positive vibe around them when you see your kid having difficulties in something that maybe a kid without disabilities would do easily, but I think we as the ones taking care of them should encourage them to keep going, we can all do wonderful things, maybe today feels rough and difficult to move on and show our relative with disabilities that we are there for them, but we should get up and be there to support them!
