7 things Never to say to people with disabilities
aprilie 15, 2008
1. “What’s wrong/what happened?” or “Were you born that way?”
2. “Oh, if you just have faith, you can be healed.”
3. Speaking slowly or loudly to someone who is in a wheelchair.
4. “I don’t even think of you as a person with a disability.”
5. “How do you go to the bathroom?”
6. “But you look so good.”
7. “Oh, you’re here, you must feel better.”

Sometimes we don’t realise we’re hurting them by saying all that. Guess people should be more sensitive toward their feelings.
