Giving Voice to the Invisible Hey people, sorry to bother. My teacher just asked me if I could participate in the school newspaper. I proposed to write about how invisible disabilities influence the way we communicate and fit in, not only in school but in everyday life. My teacher absolutely loved this idea. You already know that stuttering is one of those invisible disabilities that you cannot see until the person speaks. My goal is to give visibility to all those people who fight every day against their disability, motivating them to think that they are more than their difficulties and trying to make those who do not live with them be more empathetic towards people who do. I'd appreciate any ideas for what I'm going to write and I'll reconsider the ideas that you give me. I'd love some help on how to make people with disabilities feel happy when they read my text at school and how to make those who would laugh at someone with a disability not do so.
