"Führe mich, halte mich"

Just a digital artist who likes a lot of things. This is my main/personal blog, so if you'd like to know more about me, read my "About" page!

A child is punished for moving and making noise.

To avoid more punishment, the child sits still and is quiet. But they have to actively remind themself constantly to sit still and be quiet.

The teacher sees the child sitting still and being quiet. The teacher treats this as the baseline.

Since the child is putting a lot of effort into sitting still and being quiet, doing so distracts from paying attention to what the teacher is teaching. The child then is punished for not paying attention.

The child now knows that they'll be punished no matter what they do. And they can't explain why they struggle, because any attempt to explain is arguing.

Reminder that seeing a disabled person participate in a task once does NOT mean it is easy and straightforward for them and that making assumptions (and loudly voicing said assumptions) based on that is incredible unhelpful

You don't see the preparations made in advance to be able to tolerate the event.

You don't see the discomfort or pain they're experiencing during the event.

You don't see the rest after the event.

You don't see the crash or flare up that the event may cause.

You haven't considered that their disability could be dynamic. Sure, they may have managed an event however if their condition is dynamic there aren't any garentees they can handle it multiple times, equally there are no garentees they'll be able to handle it in the future.

my favorite love language is trying, actually

[suntara]

like when people try to learn your hobbies or try to play the same sports that you play in an effort to get closer to you, people who try to love you the way you love people, people who will go to places you want to visit just for your sake, people remembering, putting in an effort. just. trying
