i don't know the politically correct
answer. Is it good taste or very poor taste to send a "Christmas/Chanukah"
card to a blind person Boyfriends? |

-I don't think it is in bad taste. I think it would be appreciated just as
much as if someone sent one to you!!! People that have blindness have all
sorts of tools available to them to help them read not only their
mail(email) but any sort of written material! -How about looking at it this way. If they did not have a visual
impairment (or any other kind of imapairment), would you have sent
them a card? The answer is probably yes. In which case you will have
done the right thing to send them one. If the card had a picture
which used disability humour aimed at visually impaired people, and
you think they would not appreciate this type of humour then that
would be different.
I am sure the person will have some mechanism / software etc. by which
to 'read' the text or see the picture. - I know. But not sure the device able to read my
handwriting has been invented yet (-;
So I guess, Craig, that one thing you'll have to consider,
is that the card might be read aloud to the person by
somebody else - it might even be a relative. So don't put
too much embarrasing stuff in writing (at least TRY, will
you?:) - but then this is always a consideration with an
open postcard, isn't it? *S* - thinking of a few embarrasing
cards and envelopes I've recieved over time (-;
BTW - there's also these musical cards. And another option
is tapes - used to sell short ones with envelopes at the
post office once upon a time - my kids used them for
greatings to grandparents before they could write.
Nope - I can't think of a single reason for not sending
anything! (But then I might be in very bad taste - often
buying gifts for boyfriend, that he can't use
independantly). |
