Instead, they should respect us as talented individuals.”It was proposed that persons with disabilities possess certain attributes that those people refer to as “normal” do not. These would include the ability to deliver and understand sign language.The open door centre, (National Vocational Training Centre for Persons with Disabilities) focused on parents and teachers playing a part in ensuring that persons with disabilities have a quality life.The students, in the opinion of many, presented their “well put together” information in a manner that was shocking to most.According to them, quality of life has to do with the general well-being of a person. They added that it will take into account; one’s standard of living, human rights, freedom, happiness and other human necessities.They supported the need for teachers to work hard towards the edification of persons with disabilities.The students presented a chart that showed the results of premium education. They suggested that a good education leads to the capture of a good job; a good job then leads to wealth. They further indicated that wealth produces houses and other luxuries that then results in the ultimate goal, “a quality life”.Presenters from other schools conveyed similar messages in that persons living with disabilities do not need sympathy or scorn instead; all they need is to be accepted by society as another human being.According to Alexis Mc Curdy, a student of Tutorial High School,Reggie Wayne Miami Jersey, nobody should be discriminated against.She further stated that many persons may feel isolated, unwanted or as if they are burdens to society. Since being disabled can be a cause and effect of poverty “we need not further discriminate against these persons”According to the representative of Queens College, discrimination becomes contagious in schools and society in general.The young man stated that he was a victim of discrimination thus he knows how it feels.He recalled that in the first form a coach, who is no longer attached to the school, denied him the chance of being a part of the school’s cricket team because of the fact that he had a disability—he has one arm.“I would have been the best bowler; the fastest even,Cheap Stitched Jerseys,” the young man lamented.Marcel Hudson,Jake Long Michigan Jersey, Assistant Chief Education Officer for Primary Education pledged the Ministry’s support to the future endeavors of the Guyana Council of Organizations for Persons with Disabilities.
