Through
research it’s a proven fact that disabled students are victimized more than
students without disabilities. The
accessor’s pick the most vulnerable that can imitate, which included anyone
that is different in their eyes. In this
article, as girl named Molly who was born visually impaired and lost her vision
as a teenager was victimized by both her peers and teachers.
When
Molly goes for help from her guidance counselor, she was pushed away and told
it was her fault. In today’s society instead
of getting involved and trying to solve the problem, most walk or push away. In my opinion, most people have not talked or
worked with a person that has a disability and are scared of them because they
are different.

There are two sets
of parents that fight for the right of their child, special-ed and
non-disabled. Each set has their goals
for their children, but the parents of the special-ed student have a lot more
fighting ahead of them. Today’s schools don’t allocate enough funds for the
extra they need to accommodate the different disabilities.
If a school
district doesn’t offer what a special-ed student needs, they either transfer to
another school or even district, or they hire an outside source to accommodate
the student. With that, I believe some
school districts can make it more difficult for the student and parents to
succeed in the public school systems.
