I’ve observed how different models of disability shape societal attitudes and responses. The Moral Model often perpetuates stigma and exclusion, viewing disabilities as punishments or curses, which can lead to social isolation. In contrast, the Medical Model focuses on diagnosis and treatment, but it often neglects the social barriers that individuals face. I find the Social Model particularly compelling, as it advocates for creating inclusive environments and recognizes disability as a societal issue rather than an individual flaw. This perspective encourages us to challenge stereotypes and promote accessibility, ultimately fostering a more supportive community for everyone. I’m eager to hear your thoughts and experiences regarding these models!
