A person with disability and their parents or caregivers fight the
biggest and the toughest battle not because of
The obstacles the
disability gives, but because of the obstacles we, the so called society give
them. Sadly yes! Society "WE", are the biggest problem
for disabled and to and to their parents. Eventually, the isolation
from the society become the easiest option for them.
Let's have a look on
how. Starting from the birth till their adult life see how "Society
"WE", are the biggest problem for disabled".
1ST BATTLE: (immediately after birth)
Immediately after the
birth, doctor diagnose the baby with disability (of any sort), doctor come to
the baby's happy and excited parents and instead of saying,
"congratulations for your baby" and then guide further about the
situation, he comes and say, "SORRY! Your child does have whatever
disability". 😞😞
The happy and excited
parents start seems worry, their gratitude towards the GOD turns into complain
and then....then the misguidance leads their worry towards negative thoughts.
Like,
- My child is abnormal, he/she could not live a normal
life.
- No future of my child
- My child's growth does not have any way, and so
on.
The real feeling can
only be express by the victims.
And nobody tell them
that "Their way of growth could be different but, stages of growth is same
as normal".
2ND BATTLE: (when the parents of disabled are
sitting with us, the "SOCIETY")
Behavior we people show
vs. the behavior they really need from us:
The behavior which we
named as "SYMPATHY” may be become the reason of increasing their stress,
decreasing their motivation and lower down their self-esteem. Just think, when
we see such child what are our sentences??
- "OH! your child is abnormal😨"
- "Oh, he is an exam from God for you, be brave☺️", and etc. etc.
But....what they
actually need from us is only and only an "ACCEPTANCE". They already
know much about their child, they don't need any reminder. They just need
people who embrace their child as we do for any other child, who embrace their
child's moves without any question & answer, just an EMBRACEMENT and an
ACCEPTANCE.
3RD BATTLE: (when the child, due to his
disability rejected by his peers)
Unfortunately because of
our own blackness and weaknesses we forget to teach our own children that how
to behave when you meet your disabled peer.
There are many
reasons behind this...may be our own reaction towards that child or our schools
who never allowed that child to get enter in their schools because he/she is
DISABLED.
Eventually, during the
period which is the period of building self-esteem of any child, his/her gets
destroyed before building.
