Everyone more or less laughed and made fun of special children (and also "weird" or "abnormal" people) at one point in their lives, you'd be lying if you deny that.
My question is,
Why do we laugh?
Is it because it is genuinely funny, thus we laugh?
Is it to make ourselves better? if so what's the difference?
It is genuinely funny because they aren't normal.
Is there something wrong with that?
Laughing at them is not something worse, Some normal people are even worst than them in terms of behavior. By saying we laugh doesn't mean we feel guilty about doing something on them. We should be treating them fairly equal. You must laugh with them of course to make them happy because they need it. Sometimes we need to understand the barriers between the so called normal and not normal. These barriers are breaking us apart when we don't need to. Why in the world these terms are even here for them? Can we just put it aside and look at them as normal people despite of their mentality difference?
