What are the positives and negative of human being within a wheelchair?
Positives: You get polite parking spots.
Negatives: People pity you, are embarassed by you, you can't go where on earth everyone else can, your arms get tired.
can't enunciate there are any positives. I own several friends in wheelchairs for natural life and they have no problems getting around. although sometimes when out drinking we own to carry our one buddy up the steps depending on the location
My grandpa lived to 100. He refuse to sit in a wheelchair. Said it would shorten his time if he thought of himself as a cripple. The positive of using a wheelchair is that old populace don't fall down and break their hips and die.
