Do you treat disabled people differently?

I'm only a bit more careful, for example, I tend to make sure that a person in a wheelchair won't hit a chair/door frame etc.
But besides such minor things, I treat them as any other person.

I treat them like people I guess. When my grandmother was living a treated her like a normal sweet grandmother even though she had no legs. My uncle is blind but I treat him normal except for when I'm helping him walking. I am really careful with him.Overall I treated them as if they were normal just like me.

Nope. One of my closest friend's has been in a wheel chair ever since he was 8 yrs old (Multiple sclerosis) so most of his life. He tells me how he hates when people treat him with over kindness and that he sees right through it;"makes social encounters feel fake". On top of that, he's one of the biggest d*ck I know, so because of him I don't try to coddle disabled people. They're just like everyone else and are just as capable of being complete ***holes as everyone else. :cool:

I kinda feel like this. I didn't want my grandmother to feel weird when she was living and I treat my uncle pretty normal too. Some people feel bad or think others are kissing their butts when they are bias towards them because of disabilities.
