On TV screen, Zhao Benshan, a famous Chinese comedian, was making a parody of man on crutches. My families laughed, but I didn't think that was funny.
It reminded me of my classmate Chen, who had language barrier due to the brain damage in a car accident. He could only hear things with a hearing aid device connected to the back of his head, and he couldn't speak clearly. His deskmate, Wang, seemed quite enjoy provoking him. His favorite move was to pull over the device and stick to his own head, imitating Chen's mumble so loud that the whole class can laugh at him. Farce like that happened a lot. My classmates quite enjoyed it; they laugh happily, especially when Chen got furious.
I couldn't stand it and talked to Wang. I persuaded Wang not to jeer at Chen, but what if Chen steps out of the class to the society? He would get even more jeer. In China, there are more than 85 million disabled people, which make up 6 percent of whole population. Despite that high proportion, disabled people don't have enough respect and care. For instance, blind ways are always designed with many defects; a fire hydrant or bus stop may block the way. Walking along the road, I see people don't take care of blind ways. Some drivers park their car on them while snack bars put the desks and tables on them. I've interviewed several blind people and none of them said they had used blind ways. Government has invested a lot of money on building up those facilities. However, it seems more like a matter of appearance than actual helping.
Moreover, special education is underdeveloped in China. In some ways, Chen is fortunate because he can study in a high school. To those who are completely deaf, they can only go to special education school, where the education quality is much lower. Therefore, they cannot find a job and make money, leading to deeper privation of their already unfortunate life. A vicious circle is formed.
One night Chen was chatting with me in dormitory. He told me his favorite thing is travelling. Shanghai, Tibet and Hongkong were marked with his footprint. His dream was to be a writer who would write down the experience of travelling around the world. When he talked about this, his eyes emitted light that I've never seen before. That light, consisted of passion and aspiration, broke the fog of hardship in life and hit the innermost part of my mind, spurring me to jump on the way of exploring new therapy and auxiliary appliance to help Chen, and more disable teenagers to live a normal life, gain respect and pursue their dreams.
