A disabled woman shared her experience of being asked by a stranger to explain her disability to their child during a simple trip to the shop. The woman, who uses a wheelchair due to cerebral palsy, described the encounter as uncomfortable and emotionally draining. She emphasized that disabled individuals should not be expected to educate others about their conditions, and that such interactions can be mentally exhausting, leading her to avoid going out in public. Cerebral palsy is a condition caused by a brain injury before, during, or shortly after birth, which can affect movement and posture. The woman was born with this condition but has learned to live a fulfilling life. However, she finds it distressing to discuss the details of her disability, especially when approached by strangers. She shared past experiences of being asked personal questions, including a taxi driver who made a comment about suicide if he had her disability, and a child who asked her about her legs when she was just six years old. The woman also recounted being asked intrusive questions on dates, such as whether she could have sex, which highlights the range of personal and often inappropriate questions that disabled individuals may face. Despite these experiences, she acknowledged that some interactions with children can be positive, such as when a child admired her ability to move quickly in her wheelchair. She stressed that while she appreciates the curiosity of others, there should be clear boundaries and respect for personal space. She has become more assertive in setting these boundaries but also calls for greater understanding and respect from the public. She emphasized that disabled individuals are not obligated to provide explanations or serve as educators for others' curiosity or children's questions.
