According to the statistics of the Disabled Persons' Federation, there are more than 80 million disabled people in China, including 8 1.7 million disabled children, accounting for about 2.66% of the total number of children. Among these disabled children, 66% are mentally retarded children, and there are as many as 3 million disabled children aged 0. There are many factors that cause disability. In some remote areas, disabled children are mostly caused by heredity and malnutrition, and brain damage caused by fetal delivery may also lead to disability.
In China, less than 1000 disabled people successfully enter colleges and universities every year, but in 20 16, the number of undergraduate students enrolled in higher education in China was 746.6 1000, that is to say, the proportion of disabled people was only about 0. 125%. Because they can't receive a good education, it is difficult for them to find decent and well-paid jobs after entering the society, and they can't compete with able-bodied people in the workplace, which leads to economic embarrassment, marriage and fertility problems.
Discrimination is everywhere in the growth of disabled children. In the children's world, if one person is "different" from everyone, it will become an alternative and be excluded. Some children think that deaf-mute people will not complain to their teachers, and they can bully them at will. Disabled children with lame legs will drag their feet, so they will not be allowed to play games, and they will stick mocking notes on blind children at will to let them be pointed at.
Living in an isolated environment for a long time, disabled children will become more and more sensitive and inferior, become unwilling to communicate with others, and always shut themselves in their own small world. Sometimes, in order to integrate into the big environment, we have to put a low profile, accept the ridicule of others, and even make fun of ourselves to please others, and dare not resist unfair treatment.
However, there are many disabled children who are not depressed. Although they met some ridicule, they also got the care of friends, parents and teachers, and they had a wonderful time. Yao in Anhui was diagnosed with cerebral palsy after his birth. When he was a child, his mobility was almost zero, but fate left him a window, and his intelligence was no big problem.
He studies very hard, because of spasticity caused by cerebral palsy, he writes slowly, and he often can't finish his composition when taking Chinese exams. He didn't give up. In Chinese 1 1 1, mathematics 130, foreign language 125, with a total score of 623, he was admitted to China Pharmaceutical University.
There is no absolute fairness in any society. Some people have worked hard all their lives, but they still can't escape the curse of poverty. Some people were born in Rome and enjoy all the good resources. For those born with disabilities, Rome is farther away from them. However, Yao did not fall into despair because of this difference. His physical disability did not defeat his spirit. He still tries his best to make his life worthwhile. How can this tenacity make people not moved?
At the same time, improving the quality of life of disabled people, especially disabled children, depends not only on their own efforts, but also on the social environment, so that they can enjoy more convenience. More barrier-free buses and toilets should be added to facilitate disabled people's travel. For disabled children with basic learning ability, we should encourage them to go to school for education, which is the most reliable way to change their fate. To guide the public to be kind to disabled people, we should not treat them as monsters just because they are different from healthy people in some ways.
It is also necessary to do a good job in popular science in rural areas, so that pregnant women can do a good job in pregnancy preparation and prenatal examination to avoid congenital factors causing disability. At the same time, we should give them appropriate maternity subsidies, let them go to regular hospitals to give birth, and avoid problems such as cerebral palsy caused by improper operation during childbirth.
