different treament

Why is it that we get treated better than people with disabilties? I believe that we all should be treated the same way. Disability History in U.S.A. states that 60% of people ages 25 to 64 with a nonsevere disabilty live in married couple families.The corresponding rates are 68 percent for tthose without disabilities and 50 percent for people with severe disabilities. If this was known would people have diffrent thoughts on disabled people? But even if they didin't I don't get the fact that able bodied should get better treatment then the disabled. Disability History in U.S.A. Also states hat 72% percentage of people 80 and older with disabilities,the highest of any age group.I find this very interesting because I wold have thought that disabled people woudn't live that long. Want im tring to say is that we should treat disabled like able boded people.

Pain In Your Dreams

"You dream of how to cut your limbs off that hurt and you cry because its just horrible"

- Fibromyalgia: Part II- What It Feels Like

Out of all the videos and statements this stood out to me the most. Everyone has an escape from their pain fears or problems. This made it clear that the pain of someone with Fibromyalgia can't even escape the pain sometimes when they are unconscious. A pain so severe that makes you wasn't to cut of your limbs is something unimaginable, unfathomable. It is only a pain that can make sense if you experience it. Nobody should have to go through such a horrible pain. I found it interesting how the person speaking in this video said they have had tattoos, piercings, even fights but no pain she has ever had could compare to the pain she expiriences with this disease. This definitely opens my eyes to the true pain of these disabilities. I thinkl that everybody should open their eyes to understand these disabilities.

Did you know?

$22,000 is median earning for people who have a nonserve disability, People who have no disability is $25,000, and people who have a serve disability only get $12,800. This quote is from http://disabilityhistoryinamerica.wetpaint.com/page/Disability+Statistics+In+America. This quote stood out to me because it shows people with disabilities are treated differently involving money to. Regarding disability is society this means that people who are not disable are treated better then people who are disabled. I do not believe this right because not only are we equal I believe money should go to helping out people with disablities so they can life the way everyone whats to live their lives. Happy.

Disability Statictics

72% of people 80 and older with disabilities is the highest of any age group. I can say I strongly agree with this because as I look down the street and I see most of my elders in that age group they have some type of disabililty. Its sad too see people with disabilities because it seems like they are struggling and I feel no one should struggle and they should have something to cure their sickness. I have a grandma that is disabiled and I hate seeing her suffer and I know others feel the same way about there family. For those who discriminate on disabiled people really are immature cause 1 day that could be them and they wouldnt like if that was they family members being picked on like that

Crazy Dances! :D

wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
When I found out there were Hip Hop dancers in wheel chairs, I was like "Nah that's true?" So I checked out the link and watched the YouTube video. The Dancing were Filled with 360 spins and arm movement. Nothing like actual dances of everyday life but it was different. I liked it.

When I looked through YouTube to see a lot more dances I noticed the comments.. some were nice some were uncalled for some was constructive criticism some was horrible:

"Lol really funny," -Taking the whole thing as a joke. laughing at the dancers.

"What a S#$t"- So rude it had to be censored, when I read that I wondered did they mean the dance or dancer???

"THEY SUCK! The guy cant even dance and he has legs."- So is he saying the whole wheelchair dancing is dumb and that people with legs should be more dominant as a general statement?

So in general the ignorance of people is very inappropriate. One girl made a description on how she sadly got her foot caught in a railroad track when she was 9. A random person than rudely questioned her. Some might say," hey they are treating her like an average person." but that was towards the ...hey imma joke around and make fun of her tragic life changing accident. Meaning the person is making fun of her whole life changing accident through sarcastic comments.

My final thought... "Treat people they way you wanna be treated!!!! Also after reading the quotes just remember to think before you say.
wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww

being disabled

Did you know that disabilitiesare more common in female than in males? Disabilities are not easy to handle because other people discriminate against disabled people. The percentage of females with a disability is higher than the percentage of males. On the other hand, among children under 15, boys were more likely than girls to have a disability( 11 percent versus 6 percent). source: wetpaint.com. I think this quote is significant because it does not matter whether or not female are more likely to be disable than males. Both genders have to deal with the same diffuculties and the same discrimination. I think society looks at other disabled people as being worthless and they do not have many future to look for because they are disabled. But if society will just stop for a moment and think that they are all human beings just like us. Then the world will see that disabled people can do the same thing like a nondisabled people, but in a different way.

Prejudice

Mister X says he doesn't see why he should have to pay for disabled people to get elevator, and if they can't use the stairs then they have no business going there"

Mister X statement about how we shouldn't care about improving certain areas where disabled people cannot get too is a disgraceful comment. 51.3 million people have some level of disability this represents 18 percent of the population. With 18 percent of the population having some type of disability and this number steadily increase each year. It would be smart to spend the money for this problem know then later when it would be more important to already have this upgrades. Think about what is you family is disabled, would you want to take you paralyzed grandmother with you on the walkway to see a beautiful view of the river. Let your son with quadriplegia get some fresh air, even while paralyze every one has eyes that want to see the wonders of the world. Being disable does mean that they change they just live diffrently.
