People see my wheelchair and they automatically assume a developmental delay. Then are stunned when they see my wedding ring.
I don't see this as much as I used to. It happened more when I was a child and teenager. My favorite was when folks would squat down to my level to look me right in the eye, and in a hideous sing-song voice ask me, "Do you go to a special school?" I would respond with an eyeroll and tell them, "I'm a 3.5 psychology student at Lee University. Never really thought the school was special though."
Shut them up really quick.
Lindsay, one of my BFs DDs is going to attend Lee this fall. My niece went to a really nice camp there this summer!
