Re: [AI] my quriyocity are normelpeople interested in marrying blind partners

Let me share my thoughts as a growing adult on the issue of sighted vs. blind.

Choosing a blind partner: Many of us do have these doubts as to
whether a blind partner would be better than a sighted partner or not.

To my mind, the difference is in the fact that having a blind partner
would make things easy to the extent of your understanding of the
issues concerning the blindness. So, in case of a sighted person you
may need to work with them for example to not to change the place of
the things frequently as that may cause a little discomfort in your
daily work. And the disability related issues will need to be
explained to him. Which are not required to be done in case of a blind
partner at that basic level.

But that does not mean that you will have a better compatebility. That
has got nothing to do with disability per se.

It also depends how well you can play your role in that other
partner's life. I have seen many blind people arguing for a sighted
partner just because they think that their challenges of life will be
over. That type of dependence to my mind is not good for a married
life. Remember, he is your  companion not a servant or assistant.

Choosing a Sighted: Many sighted do not give a deep thought on the
issues concerning marrying a blind partner of course when that initial
resistance of others is over once they decide that they themselves
have no mental blocks in getting a blind partner. Its only at the
later stage when people realize that its a lifetime battle as regards
the answering the society, or anything else for that matter.

At that stage both need to act sensibally. For example, I would never
like to listen if my wife happens to be sighted at a later stage in
life that she made a mistake by choosing a blind partner. That can
only happen if I continue to play my active role, and I am not over
dependent on her.

The only consequence of having a blind partner which to my mind is
that how can you as a male partner ensure her safety and security. And
I am not saying that all blind females who have blind husbands are
unsafe or unsecured. Its just offering that comfort. And of course
some additional challenges like teaching your kids subjects like
Science where you yourself have the weak background, which may need to
be tackled appropriately.

Now as far as convincing a sighted partner is concerned: First and
foremost, I am of the opinion that do not try everyone and anyone.
Spend proper time, and then understand really is it what you are
looking for? Forget be it blind or sighted.

Second, I quite agree with Rajesh sir and Shadab bhaiya's views of
being yourself and having your other qualities at its best which can
then open a window for detailed and deep discussion. Disability
related challenges need to be discussed not only between the
individuals but also at the family level to avoid complications if
any.

If you have a decent earning prospects and a decent life wherein you
are capable of upbringing your family well, then it is not as big
problem as we see getting a sighted partner also. Again to emphasise,
the only important aspect is to discuss the disability related
challenges at the beginning itself to avoid issues in future.

Nikita diii is just one exceptional example. maintaining yourself as a
girl of that kind despite blindness also is a big thing to happen! But
of course city, education, family and all plays a big role in that
personality with which one comes out as an individual.

Great example Bhawani sir. How did your brother handle the education part?

I think socialization is also an important factor. Not many blind
people socialize also beyond their community of course. Anyways these
are just my concerns.

When the issue of compatibility is considered key in creating
conducive climate for couple's career, better professional background
should be given the utmost priority while finding partner. It can work
well in arrange marages, but in love? nothing can be surmised and all
happens at one go. either you swim or you sink... but Ideally, we
blind people should also seek partners from the same professional
background. For example, I'd be glad to live my marital life with
someone who should also belong to academics and preferably from
disability studies. So my disability issues will be taken care of
before hand...

My idea of asking was never to convey that all parents who are blind
their children would become criminal.

I just wanted to understand as too how do parents with blindness deal
with such challenges. I have also seen cases where because of
blindness one parent is considered less important in house after a
point of time.

And I have also seen cases where both blind parents have not been able
to give adequate education to their children. But of course, that is
not to say that all do the same.

So if you and others can come out of their instant emotional
reactions, then I can get a proper answer. The idea is not to defame
anyone. Its just to understand the technicalities.

Please remember the answer that I found, if you have read my last posting,
is Lead by Example! If you can diligently do that properly and honestly,
then there is absolutely no problem. Incidentally, I am the blind parent,
and my children even today, know that it is the mom they need to keep in
good humer and all will be well!
So don't worry, children are the true reflection of what  we have made of
them  by setting examples! Usually, we have all the lecturing and correcting
for our children, when in the true sense, we are doing exactly the opposite
in our own actions! Then, we are sending out completely conflicting messages
to them. And mind you, this holds true for even toddlers and very small
children. We feel they don’t understand, but it is the exact opposite!
