A Better Life for People with Disabilities

By KhaiTam Teenagers' Magazine 

Last week the Youth Union leaders interviewed some volunteers who have worked with disabled children. They asked them if attitudes and life for these people have changed. Here are some of their responses.

‘I think there is more support for children with disabilities now,’ said Kevin, a grade 11 student. ‘There are more special facilities and devices designed to enable people with mobility impairments to travel around. There are also new forms of Assistive Technology that can help people with visual and hearing impairments. So, I think disabled people can access more places and participate in more activities.’

Hung, the monitor of Class 10A, added, ‘Well, in terms of education, there are more special schools for children with disabilities, even in developing countries. In addition, there are many schools where disabled and non-disabled students are educated together. This has led to many benefits to both groups and has reduced discrimination towards people with disabilities.’

When asked about her volunteer experience, Anna from Class 12B said, ‘My volunteer experience has enabled me to understand children with disabilities and the support they need. It has also made me more confident and helped me to realise the difference I  can make to other people's lives. I've also met a lot of talented people with disabilities who have fulfilling jobs, live independently and contribute to the community.’

‘The most important thing is that society's attitudes towards people with disabilities have changed,’ Anna emphasised. ‘People can now join or watch events for athletes with disabilities such as the Far East and South Pacific Games for the Disabled (the FESPIC Games), the Paralympics, or ASEAN Para Games. Watching these events is inspirational as their achievements are amazing.’ She really likes the FESPIC Games' motto: ‘Overcoming challenges, inspiring others’.

1. According to Kevin, there are now more ways to support people with mobility impairments.

2. Assistive Technology can only help people with visual impairments.

3. In Hung's opinion, educating disabled and non-disabled students in the same school leads to discrimination against people with disabilities.

4. Anna has met people who have overcome their disabilities and are successful in their jobs and lives.

5. Anna thinks that international events for disabled athletes can make us better people.
