Blind and Beautiful :
I’ve had to tell my family and friends not to use me as an “inspiration” for simple, everyday tasks. They laughed it off like I was joking

Yes! Infantilism of disabled people is really dehumanizing!

I also make it a point if someone comes in with a carer that I talk to them not the carer. Nothing worse than pretending they are not there.

When I went to vote in 2016 for the first time, I had to sign my name which is difficult for me and the lady at the table said “aww you did so good”

I hated the patronizing praise. But what I hated more was some of my blind friends learning to expect such false praise and not realizing its harm.

I think we mean it as well intended but tone is definitely everything and we don't realize how patronizing it actually is.
