European Stars and Stripes (Newspaper) - August 3, 1991, Darmstadt, Hesse Ann Landers dear Ann Landers imagine this you re on an unlit Street or in a subway. There Are All the smells sounds pushing and shoving one is accustomed to in new York. You Are just walking along minding your own business and suddenly out of nowhere a hand reaches out and grabs you. Does this sound like a scene from a scary movie or a description of a crime about to happen Well its not. Its something that Blind people in the City experience at least 10 times every Day. The people grabbing you done to mean to frighten you. They really do want to help but the effect unfortunately is a feeling of fear and violation. In a a Blind woman who has lived and worked in new York for 14 years. Generally speaking i am treated with respect but there Are a great Many Well intentioned but misguided people who grab shout and indulge in thoughtless Panicky behaviour. This makes the difficult task of getting around much More stressful. Please Ann Tell your readers the following done to grab a Blind person even if there appears to be a problem. Use your voice and ask if any assistance is required. This gives the Blind person a Choice of accepting help or managing alone. If help is needed offer your Arm. Do not take the Blind persons Arm. Allowing the Blind person to take your Arm puts you slightly ahead which is much safer and easier for you both. 1 if you done to know your left from your right please saturday August 3, 1991 done to give directions to a Blind person. It can be confusing and extremely dangerous. Also pointing and saying a a it a Over there does no to help much. A final word done to Ever grab a Blind persons Cane or try to pet a seeing Eye dog. These marvelous animals will interpret any move toward them As a threat to their master and they might go on the attack. Sign me an average woman dear woman you done to sound a a average id me. You seem to be wonderfully self sufficient and perhaps better Able to fend for yourself than Many of your sighted Sisters. Thank you for an excellent informative letter. Dear Ann Landers please Settle a five Way argument. We would like to know the proper thing to do if you Are sitting in an aisle seat at Church attending a wedding or funeral and someone wants to sit in your you supposed to slide Down and make room for that person to sit in the aisle seat or should you stand where you Are and let the newcomer pass in front of you and be seated in the Middle of the Row three of us say a slide two say a stay put and let the person find a seat in the Middle of the what do you say a to slide or not in Raleigh dear Raleigh the aisle seats Are definitely the most desirable especially for weddings. Those who arrive Early often do so in order to sit on the aisle. I see no reason for them to surrender a Choice seat to a latecomer. C creators Syndicate dear Abby dear Abby my husband and i Are taking a two month vacation so we advertised in our Church newsletter for a House Sitter. Our 18-year-old daughter lives with us so we wanted a female. She works full time and goes to night classes at our Community College. A 24-year-old girl ill Call Wanda answered the and. She her parents and grandparents Are members of our Church. We told Wanda she could live Here for free and save the $100 a month she had been paying her parents for rent. Wanda said that she wanted $50 a month from us. She was the Best Choice we had so we agreed. Yesterday Wanda came Over with her parents and As they were leaving her Mother dropped this bomb a Rwanda has applied for food Stamps a but you will have to sign a paper saying that you Are not paying her anything to live in your my husband said a no problem. We will sign i do not want to sign that paper. I done to believe in lying a especially to help a Young Able bodied woman defraud the government. Abby what do you think about people asking a fellow Church member to lie so their daughter can de fraud the government our plans Are made and confirmed and we Are leaving tomorrow. There a no time to find an honest non Christian to live Here. Disgusted dear disgusted shame on those Christian churchgoers for asking you to sign a false statement in order to defraud the government. And your husband should be ashamed of himself for condoning such shenanigans. Dear Abby my problem is my grandmother my fathers Mother. Every now and then she says she is not sure that my brother and i actually Are her grandchildren. Once she introduced us to someone this Way a these Are her actual words a these Are Wilbur and Thelma a children. Well anyway they re Thelma a but in a Noure if they Are Wilbur a or my Mother has asked my father about his mothers insulting introduction and he just shrugged it off. What is your opinion of a grandmother who would act like this. Two Hurt teen agers dear Hurt grandmother could be experiencing mental or emotional problems. If that a not the Case she has a very vicious Tongue. Tell her that when she makes such insulting comments about your Mother she hurts you deeply.
