Topic	Anne Hathaway Apologizes for Disability Portrayal in The Witches
IShall_Run_Amok 11/06/20 3:08:28 PM #25:	TheLiarParadox posted... My nephew has ectrodactyly hands and feet. He has always had to deal with stares and bullying, of course, but he has also had complete strangers tell him some really off the wall shit about his condition being punishment for sins in a past life, marks of the devil, etc. He's had to deal with a lot of harsh, dehumanizing treatment from adults since he was little. My sister is not a mentally or emotionally healthy person, so she did a horrible job of getting him help he needed and instead instilled a "boot straps" mentality that has honestly gotten him far in life but the repression has caught up with him in the form of drug and alcohol abuse. He's in his 30s and just started reaching out to support groups for other people dealing with it because of the issues stemming from the abuse and mistreatment he's experienced. As far as pop culture portrayal goes and the impact it has, I think it prudent to listen to the people who stand to be affected by it and see things from their perspective. I find this sentiment agreeable. --- an american werewolf in orbit city <cite>IShall_Run_Amok posted [p:946823207] in Anne Hatha...
