Do Strangers Do This To YOU In Public Too?!

A dog snoring in the background is the soundtrack of my life

Hello. As a fellow disabled adult with CP and I uses crutches I know what it's like to be stared at by both kids and adults. I know I don't always like being helped in public because people don't know what to do and I get hurt or I don't want to be seen as less capable.

About being embarrassed- yes. I have a visual impairment and have to sit in the front to see but I’m too embarrassed to say anything. I also have a brace that I hate wearing because A: it’s uncomfortable and B: it looks weird although it has a cool pattern so I usually wear pants to hide it :/

I am handicap and I have poor balance. Back in 2001 I had to get my left knee scope done and so I'm bone on bone. My dr suggested that I get a handicap pass to save me those extra steps. My dad's uncle surprised me with a mobility 3 wheel scooter. We also bought a walker with the seat. So during the time mind you I was around 21yrs old and so I had that mind set of saying no I don't need these at all but my dad explained it to me saying that these are a tools for you to help you get around. After that I am really pleased to say that I am blessed that God gave me these to use around while I'm out about. Earlier this yr I had to get a electric wheelchair also to help get around more when I'm out and about because I have the beginning stage of osteopenia I also get looks as well but it doesn't bother me if they have a question I'm open to explain why I have these things. So don't worry about them looking just do what you are doing during that time. Hugs from AZ. Hope this helps.

See the random taking of pictures of a stranger is beyond weird and creepy to me.

Where I live it's pretty much illegal. Should be illegal everywhere

Everything You say , feel or do is normal . Strange thing is Not to feel . " disabled" terminology in my opinion are people who don't feel. ; I think You know what I mean by that ❤ (s woman I think You would be wonderful mother. Also because Your Mom is true example of : " What every Mother should be"❤.❤❤

Thank you & RESPECT ❤ ( For some reason , I don't think of you as " disabled"... Forgive me if this doesn't sound okay but I'm honest and as mother and women, I simply HEAR and LISTEN ❤ YOUR MOTHER and FRIENDS MUST BE VERY PROUD OF YOU. . . Greetings from Serbia. P.S - Say " Hello 👋 " to Your Mom, I think of her as GREAT PARENT AND WONDERFUL PERSON❤
