Hi all, I have a question. My question is this: According to you, is it advisable to talk freely with your friends and colleagues about your visual impairment? I mean, if you want to know someone's view on a particular subject which is related to your visual impairment, should you go ahead and ask that person? For example, if you wanna know someone's views about whether a visually impaired person should use a cane or not at a particular place, should you ask him/her? I also believe that many people wanna know a lot about my visual problem, but they're hesitant to ask me directly because, I assume, they believe that I'll be offended by such questions. So, should I initiate a conversation about such topics?
I do realize that one should only talk about such things with people who are close to you, and not with every other person on the street. I also realize that one should not keep constantly talking about one's visual impairment only, because that, too, would irritate the other person. So, are there any other factors that I should keep in mind while talking about these things with my friends? As always, your feedback would be really appreciated.
