High Schooler With No Legs or Arms Doesn't Make Cheerleading Team

I think if you're handicapped in that way, you have two choices. You can:

 

A) Choose to be an equal among humans. She lives, she breathes, she has the same ability to succeed in life as everyone else despite her handicap, and in all aspects of life she should not be given special treatment due to her disability. This would mean that she should happily accept the cheerleading squad's decision with the hope that someday someone will reward that kind of understanding and attitude with a bitchin' job or something.

 

or

 

B) Demand special "accomodations" for her disability, accept everyone's sympathy and accept being treated as inferior her whole life. If you want people to accommodate you, you should not have any shame in admitting you require accommodations because you are inferior.

 

Its a tough lesson, but you can't have it both ways.

 

 

Or she could, you know, get a ton of money, STDs, and self esteem doing amputee porn.

I used to do a muscular dystrophy association camp every summer and we had a kid who was on his high schools football team. Of course he couldn't play but it made all the difference in the world to him.

I can't imagine being handicapped like that, but I also don't think I'd try to be a cheerleader in that position either. I'm all for her trying to be as normal as possible so she doesn't just live on disability her whole life, so if she is going to be self sufficent let roll out with the cheerleaders and shake that pom pom. All these people are telling her is that she can't do what other kids get to do, by that way of thinking she should just stay home and live off the rest of us. Fuck that.

 

 

BTW I bet her mouth works fine too.
