Have you ever had anyone come up to you and say, ‘I’d rather be dead than be like you’?
I have, numerous times! Apparently, people would rather be dead because they can’t see why anyone could want to be alive if they use a wheelchair. And it’s not just physical disability - there are many people who have the same view of autism.
