Sure, there will always be someone who tries to "abuse" the system, but...
1. If someone is using a GAC who doesn't need it, they will quickly find out that potential delays and hassle just aren't worth it. and 2. Forgive me if I sound judgemental, but seriously, I never want to get caught up in the "my disability is worse than yours" game. I don't know anyone else's needs or issues, just mine. And there will always be someone seemingly worse or better off, but (and I know I will sound stupid, but) can't we just be a community and support each other? All of live in a world that doesn't fully accomodate our needs, we all endure stares and rude comments at some point, we all deal with painful and embarrassing situations,- could we not have a "safe" place- and try not to worry about something someone may or not be planning or whether they do or do not have a "legitimate" need? Sorry if I've said things in a rude way, but I just feel like this board should be a place we can support each other.
