This makes me very sad. Iβm not blind but I hang out here to learn because there is a decent chance I will become blind. Hearing such ignorant things must be awful. I hope you have some loving people in your life you can talk to. Iβm cheering for you from Boston, USA.

I think it's great you have goals. Keep trying, that's all you can do. I hope you become a rich businessman, then you can help others and make life better for the blind in your country.

Hello. It's nice to 'meet' you.
Love from America! Sunny Florida, to be exact.
I'm Molly, a 51 year old "legally blind" woman. I don't know if you define legally blind in your country or not, but here it means one's eyesight is so bad they may as well be considered totally blind. I was born this way. It's all I know. I want you to be successful. You can prove yourself, you CAN DO IT! You are somebody. You are important. You are respected here by us, your brothers and sisters.

Yes indeed, but we are brothers and sisters in vision loss. No offense meant. Of course we are friends as well. We just have a closer understanding of where each other is coming from. "Friends" can be varied, but brothers and sisters are closer knit in their humanity. Thank you for you comment. I hope you don't mind either.

You are right! That guy was definitely having stupid thoughts to comment like that.

Welcome brother. So sorry to hear that your teacher said that. Hope your friends have sympathy and they think your teacher is just an asshole who needs a strong punch to his jaw...
Is it just that disgusting person or have you ever experienced any other rude behaviour about your blindness from other people?
