I am a compassionate care giver and through personal family experience, understand the toll a disability takes not just on the individual but on their families as well. I think it is very important to help people with disabilities adapt to their environment so that they can make their positive contribution to it. Growing up with a sibling with a disability, it was always tough coming to terms with the fact that they could not perform all the tasks we did or do so with as much ease as we did. Once we understood that, it was a tough balancing act between helping when they faced difficulties and stunting their growth by making things too easy - till this day, we are still working on it. We have made some major progress recently as that sibling got their first job and is able to earn a living. We are making progress and I very happy about that.
