[nagdu] Consumer or Beneficiary?

[Cindy Ray]

Well, I guess I'd rather be called a consumer rather than a client or patient, but I don't recall ever being called either of those things by a dog guide school. That's not to say they didn't have paternalistic attitudes. And since that's true, words are only part of the problem. Deeds are a larger part because they could call us whatever they like and still not treat us with the respect and equality we deserve.
