In Google Reader. one of the freshmen brought up the topic of people who are handicapped. This freshman, Lhadze Bosiljevac, brought up important facts about how those who are handicapped are unfairly treated:
“Disability issues are common all over the world. People are born mentally & physically handicapped. Even if they can't walk or hold still it does not mean that they are not human. These people deserve all the rights everyone else. Because they have all the rights of normal people....How would you like to be in a wheel chair for the rest of your life? I mean we all dream to be on top, famous, or happy, but when we treat these people so rudely you don't how much we hurt them making them feel so much lower. Next time think before you act. Don't insult the less fortunate cause that can be you tomorrow.”
I respect those who are handicapped because of the message Lhadze brings up at the end of her topic: “That can be you tomorrow”. At any moment, we could end up handicapped and how would it feel to be disadvantaged your whole life, keeping you from your dreams?
Like Lhadze, I’ve noticed many people do not respect those with disability issues with the respect they deserve. They never wanted to be in the position they are in and what they really need is more care instead of treating them with rudeness.
