    I do believe that you are reading too much into things. Us non handicapped people are also treated that way, if you think of it. You lot have so much more done for you.

    Other countries shove their handicapped people in a room locked away from the public, whilst some of them use them for begging and make ends meet

    Fat people get stared at on the streets and called horrible things on television

    Same goes for skinny people, someone of a differen culture or a way of life, and list goes on.

    I can say we are all treated the same in one way or another. Don't feel that way! Love your self to the max. I been through a lot of crap but I make my self feel better nobody else can do anything for yourself. I was told I was needy B.S. We all are that's why people need each other. So I m glad you asked. I m sure you are awesome

    I don't treat you like a second class citizen.

    Everyone has needs - yours are just more obvious so people are quicker to react.

    You don't explain... HOW, or what..

    I don't see that, and I have friends who are handicapped

    This country is incredibly considerate,

    As are most people

    Enough is never enough is it...
