Disabilities Opinion

There are few topics that are as heated as disability. Disabilities inhibit people from doing certain tasks that would be easier for a non-disabled person to do. The author of "The Social Construction of Disability believes that society has neglected the needs of disabled people at the most basic levels. The opinions and assumptions that society makes are detrimental to the understanding and acceptance of disabled people throughout society. I agree with the authors opinion that society is geared toward the benefit of those that are not disabled while the disabled are accommodated minimally or not at all. I was surprised to find that one of the main reason society does not adequately accommodate disabled people is because there are debates to who should be responsible for the care of disabled people and would a different system for the care of disabled people be more or less costly for society? The topic of disabilities is a continuous debate that will take time before an effective solution is found.
