Conclusion

Today we have laws and they are enforced by strict guidelines.

Our society as a whole accepts and allows for inclusion although some individuals still look down on special individuals and poke fun at them.

Through education and exposure it is hoped that all of society will view each other as equal and unite.

The greatest injustice to any individual is treating everyone the same. Everyone is an individual and should be treated in a way that recognizes their individuality and should be provided all the supports needed for them to gain and maintain independence and equality without discrimination.
