If you have a disability or a family members please tell the OC of the disability and the challenges that are encountered daily.


Many OC members have some form of disability or a family member with disabilities.

Many OC members are insensitive to other members and display ignorant behavior about the disability issues. Like a hate crime because those that can’t do something or have faults are less of an individual compared to their superiority.

My grandson was born with Bilateral Microtia “little ears” He was born with only small parts of his ears on both sides and no ear canal to the inter ear area. His inter ears are complete develop but no outside sound can vibrate the inter ear drum. Special surgery will be required 14operation in all, special hear aids, schooling and additional parenting attention required. When you think something like would not happen to you … it does

Laugh, make joke and have fun at others expenses ….. it not so funny when you’ll dealing with a disability.

What to have a better idea what an individual deals with that has Dyslexia.

Stupid and ignorant because can’t spell or poor grammar … watch this and the tell me who smarter

You arrogant, educated asshole who have no obstruction of learning or someone educated that has Dyslexia.

I believe the lack of knowledge and ones arrogant of what a disability is like prevent them from seeing just how insensitive, almost racist and arrogant that they are.

Many of the OC members are younger and never think about the future “what if” of disabilities. It happens and when it does your world becomes a different place.

Fortunately, no one in my family has a medical disability of such. I've taught for 15 years and have seen just about everything. I'm very thankful for what I've been given and those disabled kids all have great assets to admire.

Does dyscalculia count as such a condition?

If so, then none of you smarmy, educated dickwads had better make fun of me!


Or do, because I don't take myself too seriously. Ergo, I DGAF.

I don't take myself serious because I have confidence and believe in myself as who I am.
What concerns me is the future and the insensitive that the Internet brings to the table.


I helped a girl that could not understand money. She could tell the differents between coins or the values of each.

I don't know. I think if we, as a society, started to not make such a huge issue of things, the mental challenge wouldn't be as much of a factor over the physical one.

I think part of the reason we all see some of these challenges as huge struggles is because everyone around us who is "sensitive" plays them up as such.

Granted, that doesn't mean you tell someone to suck it up, but you don't always feel the need to mention how brave someone is for fighting such a tough fight.

It's like the knight who goes to slay the dragon. The more the knight hears people talking about how amazingly brave he is, the more he considers the dragon to be something that requires bravery to face.

Let's teach our kids that it's okay to laugh at ourselves, and that we don't need to feel insecure about it, because we all have struggles.

I agree with this so damn much. Back in the day, when I read Encyclopedia Dramatica, they did make a good point about stuff like this buried underneath all the blatant attempts to offend people (or link to every shock site known to man).

Back through time, there have been many legitimate terms for the mentally handicapped like imbecile and retarded that became replaced for the reason that others would turn them into insults and people would get up in arms because of that. Seems it'd be better for people to stop being major league pussies than it would be to completely change your terminology every time hurt feelz are...uh...felt.

Might be the difference in when his kids were going to school and today, too, as schools have gotten more in tune with working with disabilities now than in the past. Before people got more educated on things like that, it was probably pretty easy to just get lumped into special ed, even if you were intelligent. My best friend growing up had a situation like that happen to him. Wasn't dyslexia for him, but something else, but he had to pretty much bust his ass just to prove to others he was capable of handling regular, and then advanced, work.

You that have two eyes, general your left eye is a focus eye, lucky I have the focus eye so with a little adjustment and practice my dept perception is not effected. Letters are reversed, partial words or mixed words and some moving words or letter. Whole sentence reversed never happen but sometimes words will be reversed. Biggest difficulty is missing letter, mixed letter and partial words. What many of you see as poor spelling or broken, missing word or sentence is the differents between typing, what my mind views and what is typed on the screen. This took me 10 minutes to type spell checker can't do what it can't translate. They don't make Dyslexic spell checker.... Mofo

I typed this sentence in less than a minute on my phone because I am not dyslexic.

Hope this helps.
