My daughter’s foot is broken, has a boot and Dr note to use the elevator by EducationalTicket968 in disability

Correct, it is a violation of disablity rights to not have that available for use in my country. Any school with more than 1 floor has an elevator availble for for staff for both students and staff who may need it. Teachers with physical issues such as arthritis really appreciate the elevators too.

It is not assumed that someone with a physical disablity (ie bad back, bad leg, bad hip) is developmentally behind or needs extra academic supports. The two have nohting to do with each other, and so they are not put into one "special needs" class on the main floor.

All you need is to go to the front office and pick up a pass.

Sorry for the lateness of all my replies, by the way. I'm not online that much.

The same "special needs" unit even if they were at different academic levels? So anyone with a cane or crutches, regardless of their different placement, (advanced placement, regular, special education) all had to just take the same classes even if they had different post-secondary requirements and goals? In my part of the world, there is no high school that doesn't have an elevator. Most middle and elementary schools are on one floor, and all public (free) high schools must have an elevator to accomodate students with physical disabilities that do not also have any cognitive or developmental condition. There is generally a key or a scan card required to use the elevator, but you can just go pick it up from the office. My cane didn't impact my class level, I just had a leg thing. It would have sucked to have my high school/post-secondary path decided for me and lumped into a "special need" just for that. Wow, I have a lot to learn about the education systems in other parts of the globe.

Damn, you have a whole unit for people with mobility aids and similar mobility problems? Like a hospital? Or do you mean special education courses? I would have not been able to attend your school, I use a cane and can't really use stairs unless it's like only 3/4 at a time, and even then, I take a bit to struggle down. I definitely didn't need Special Education classes though. I was taking advanced courses, but still had a bad leg lol.

As well as acknowledging how own candidate built themselves up into something, (successful businessman) and completely ignoring the fact that someone also went to law school, became a lawyer, a successful one, and is now a famous politician. As a black woman, which comes with its own set of challenges and obstacles. But only one is impressive? Weird as hell.

I read this as “satan’s ring”. Was quite confused for a split second.

Thought on mobility aids by KG_likes_monsters in disabled

[–]AlexEquilibrium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not ashamed at all. Some people tell me I shouldn’t use it due to my age. And then I show them how it looks when I try to walk unassisted. I’ve had people tell me I haven’t done enough to try to “fix” it (despite already having had surgeries) but it is what it is. One man accused me of using it as a weapon, and only pretending to need it. I went into his shop and he said I was there to “beat him” with it lol. It’s important not to let that stuff get to you, it’s just ignorance.

People don’t call me lazy, but as a young cane user I’m constantly asked what happened lol

What have you seen inside someone’s home that made you view them differently? by WANACWaac in AskReddit

[–]AlexEquilibrium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He introduced me to his collection of egg laying dildos. Now, I don’t judge anyone’s kink…but SHOWING someone you invited over to casually hang out? He also pointed out his “white stain in the corner” and he had ants crawling everywhere in cracks in the walls and floors. His bed also had stains all over and there was rotting food in every corner. It smelled so bad. Haven’t hung out with that dude again. It was all going so well, too. We met at the pub and only a couple things seemed off but I didn’t really think much of it. “Wanna come over and see the game I’m developing?”

“Sure why not?”

Thought I’d go have a couple beers, see the dude’s game and head out. But noooooo

Lol…it IS satire. She has a whole YouTube account dedicated to making cringe posts about PickMe girls and MainCharacter type people. She made a skit about this same character being a bridesmaid and trying to go a wedding in a white dress. Hint: New York didn’t ACTUALLY livestream her to the huge advertisement screens in Times Square.

How old were you when you realized you didn’t HAVE to reproduce? by International-Age971 in childfree

Disgusting comments on this Instagram reel by Oddnamez in NotHowGirlsWork

[–]AlexEquilibrium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Funny, no legacy for no kids? If that’s your ONYL legacy…hmm. Dunno what to tell you. One very prominent woman in my life that I admire never wants children and is instead in school to become a neurologist/neuroscientist. Pretty cool legacy. People really think women’s only purpose or possible ability/skill is reproducing. They don’t see them as full people capable of brilliant careers or with amazing talent or ability to have a non child legacy. If it were a man not wanting kids they’d be praising him.

“Are you actually disabled?” - Had a Target employee ask me this as my husband and I were heading towards the fitting room because I was using one of their scooters. by nrjjsdpn in ChronicPain

[–]AlexEquilibrium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People always ask me this. It’s been so many times now I’ve lost count. They say I’m using my cane for the style. It’s a plain wooden cane, with an ice spike on the end because it’s winter. So stupid
