I cannot tell you how much I hate the people at my mom's workplace. They are assholes there who don't know a thing about people with disabilities. For example, here is a story I have to share with you all. When I was in elementary school, my best friend was deaf and had no friends other than me. I felt very sorry for her and the kids and staff at my mom's workplace all made fun of her and were rude to her. It made both of us very sad and angry. This girl is just like any other person only she wears a hearing aid and talks with a rather squeaky voice. I mean she can function properly and do high school level work and such. And yet those thoughtless kids laughed and made fun of her because of her hearing impairment. I offered to be her friend and then she felt better. I've never seen such mean people in my life. Also, the staff at the place don't understand that I have disabilities, too, and things are harder for me. I try telling them about it, they won't listen. What do you guys think of the situation? Tell me

I hate people like that. I know a girl who is almost completely deaf, and I have her in a class. When we have to do presentations, all the douchebag guys sit and laugh the whole time she speaks. I actually got up and yelled at them, and they haven't since

people who pick on those with disabilities of any kind need to shut the f*$k up before they get knocked the f*$k out. honestly, have some decorum.
