Re: [AI] idea for the documentary

2006-07-26 Thread Kasha
Hi,

As per this issue, sometimes, some people use to hold my other end of my 
cane for guiding me though. Actually, I don't prefer that way of guidance. 
Because, as I feel, uncomfortable with that type of guidance. since I'm 
using my foulding cane, while they pull that little stronger, the elastic 
may get cut off or, will give us some confusing mind. In some cases, some of 
them will give me their pen to hold the other end of it. I, sometimes, felt 
that was ok too. since the pen has no joins and since it is a smaller thing, 
hope, it may not misguide us.

Cheers,

Kasha.

What about the people who hold you firmly by your wrist while showing 
you the way? The grasp sometimes seems uncomfortable and tight but you 
can't complain since you are getting help which you may require very 
urgently at that moment. The social attitudes play an important role 
even if the person concerned may not like to do so but is forced by 
social circumstance.

Geetha,

My observation has been somewhat mixed, as people with or without education 
could do it. Another aspect is that only very few people have behaved in 
this manner. The problem with human beings  is that we tend to remember bad 
things more than the good once, so I could recall it easily.

Dinesh,

This is all the same done most of the time, and I must confess that I 
sometimes simply do not have the energy to protest. My observation has been 
that people with some amount of education do not usually lead you by holding 
the cane, but people with relatively little education do that more often. 
This may differ with others, but in my case, colleagues who lead me to the 
bus have never held my cane; on the other hand, when any of the bus drivers 
do so, they invariably take one end of my cane.

Re: [AI] idea for the documentary

2006-07-24 Thread rajesh asudani
Moreover, I do not think guiding by holding cane instead of hand can be
really useful, as I am often unsure in which direction the cane is being
pulled, because folding cane gets disjointed when pulled.

The person holding cane either thinks us untouchable or is over reticent in
my view, and would do well to refrain from undertaking such a venture. They
must be properly advised about advantages of guiding by hand, and not shooed
away.

Rajesh.

Dear Thara:

There's a practical problem in someone holding our cane. Because they do
it while crossing the road, there's a gap between the guide and the VH
and there's only the cane that connects them. So, if a two-wheeler comes
between them, it becomes very difficult for the guide to take the VH
around the bike standing between them. Also, we need our stick to look
for pits and uneven surface, even though someone is helping us walk
through the difficult place. This's because most who guide us don't know
that they should indicate pits and uneven surfaces and even if someone
knows that they should, he/she isn't sure how to do it.

holding cane in a way as if you are being dragged is not good, and it would 
be far difficult for me to explaine in words, nevertheless I will try.

Let us say you are holding the cane from the top of it as all of us do it. 
then someone grabs it from the middle or from the other end and pulls you, 
this is what I ment by holding the cane. Sorry if I was not clear enough. It 
is very hard to explain feelings properly in words.

it is totaly wrong, when some one helping us, is holding our cane,
further they should be told to offer there hand, not take ours,
so please don't give wrong signal to people by letting them holding your cane.

r this responsibility.



If something must be moved, inform the VCP that you have moved it and

where it's been moved. If necessary, provide the VCP the opportunity to

get reoriented

with the new arrangement.



These tips benefit both the visually challenged person as well as the

sighted community. Following them will eliminate much of the awkwardness

and confusion

involved when interacting with a visually challenged person. It will

also empower the visually challenged person to maintain independence and

self-sufficiency.

Re: [AI] idea for the documentary

2006-07-24 Thread Dinesh Kaushal
yes, I can add that some people tend to hold the walking cane in stead of 
our hand , and do not change even with insistence.

I can recall another insidence, that one person who used to sit at crossing 
and when I approached it he used to come and help. but his help was of 
forceful nature.

once I asserted that he hold my hand rather than the stick, he might have 
felt bad and to show his anger he just shooked me and left me in the middle 
of the road which could be dangerous.

Another time I was waiting on a bus stop, and a young guy pulled up with his 
scooter and offered his help, as I do not appriciate unsolicited help, I 
declined the offer and suggested that I can manage on my own and have no 
problem in travelling in bus. He got enraged and started saying things like 
you are shying like a girl, I will not kidnap you.

These are some of the insidences which I could recall, but there might be 
lots of instances which others may have faced.

Regards
Dinesh

Fortunately, no one held me by my collar, but many have literally 'man
handled' me by pushing me from behind like a car, twisting my arm to the
extant that I had to scream in discomfort and lifting and downing my
elbow to indicate ups and downs.

hi friends this is jatin shah
I'm trying to make a documentary where I'm going to show incidents which

have taken place with the visually challenged. The purpose behind this
is to 
create awareness among other people about visually challenged. Therefore
I'm 
going to use Malhar (the xaviers college festival) as a platform to film
the 
documentary.
This movie will not exceed five minutes. I am planning to divide this
movie 
in two parts:
The first part will be about how people tend to make blunders. For
example 
when a friend of mine asked for assisstance to cross the road, a woman 
dragged him by his collar instead of allowing him to hold her arm.
The second half will show the correct way to assisst etc.
So I would like to hear of incidents which have taken place with any of
you 
as it would be a great help to me.
I'm doing this to spread awareness about the visually challenged.
I look forward to your response.
Jatin Shah
