Ten things never to say to a disabled person

I came accross a few things that you shouldn't say to a disabled person. I found it pretty funny cause it happens to me all the time! LOL.

  1. "It's OK, I know how to deal with you. I've worked with the disabled
  2. "Is your partner disabled too?"
  3. "So, What's up with you?"
  4. "If I became disabled, I think I'd kill myself."
  5. "I saw this great thing on TV that could help you..."
  6. "There's a disabled woman that lives down my street. I see her going past sometimes."
  7. "Wait here..."
  8. "It must be nice to get out and about."
  9. "I think you're really brave."
  10. "I really admire you."
