[IL-Talk] Treated Like a 2 year old

[iwannacu2 at sbcglobal.net]

I just hate when I'm out with a sighted person and the cashier or where ever
we are talks to the sighted person, like I can't speak for myself?
Although, in some cases they know me and do talk to me instead of the
sighted person.  I agree with Eileen, that the public has to be educated
more about this!

In this day and age? The general public needs to be educated on people
skills from an early age. No blind person should tolerate this type of
behavior.
