Ugh, the part where she told about being asked "what happened to you" was so relatable. I'm not blind, but I suffer from clinical depression and often when I said it to someone who didn't know they went like: "Oh! Why? What happened?". And it really bugged me and I couldn't understand why I felt so upset when I heard it. With time I realised it was an incredibly inappropriate question. Like, wtf man? I say I have depression and you're literally asking why? What are you expecting me to tell you? Do you want to hear about how my parents were neglectful and left me alone for hours when I was like 5, and then were disappointed on me if I acted like a child and cried? Are you expecting me to casually tell you about my history of sexual abuse when I was a teen? Then what the fuck is that question? Do you want to hear about the meds I take or how I don't really know if my disorder is like, inherited from my depressed parents and maybe there's just chemicals that my brain doesn't make in the right quantities? What the fuck? I don't have to prove myself to anyone, if I told you I have depression is for you to be aware that maybe some tasks will take me longer than for other people, or that I might have a bit of trouble for certain things, not for you to quiz me on it like you're asking which my favourite icecream flavour is.

That one sucks. I used to have that problem due to a psychiatric problem. Seeing people that effectively had no faces was rather disturbing. They sort of had faces, but they were more like rubber masks that lacked much detail. Over the years, it's something that I struggle with because I have no mind's eye and no ability to take what a person looks like now and compare that to what they looked like before a hair cut or change in clothing. I've somewhat improved by working to focus on bone structure and eye color, things that don't change as easily, but it's not easy and likely isn't even possible for somebody with actual face blindness.

I won't lie: I thought you didn't look blind either when I first saw in Shane's video. Not because of something physical or some cliche like the sunglasses. It's just that you're so expressive with your eyes. I never met a blind person before so my basis was mostly movies and tv. Every time there's a blind character they're always make so the actor have their eyes unfocused and they never move their eyes or head. So even if they're talking with someone next to them they still seem to be staring straight ahead. So to see you with your eyes on someone's face while you're talking to them and even rolling your eyes to the camera, it was surprising. And I also realized how ignorant I was... So... sorry about that. I've been watching your videos and loving them so much.

Once they consent, then you can safely assume it's ok to talk to the child. That way, you're not talking about the child like they're invisible; you're just getting permission first, as you should. Or you can ask the child, "hey, would your mom/dad mind if you have some juice/candy/animal crackers?". That way, you're not being weird about it, the child feels included, and you haven't just spoken directly to someone's child as if their parents aren't there. Either way would be fine for any mentally stable adult. If the parents take offense to that, then they are the problem, not you. What you don't do is just speak to children without acknowledging their parent/guardian whatsoever. That's a quick way to piss someone off. Otherwise, you're fine. It also works this way with dogs. Ask if it's ok for the dog to have a Slim Jim or dog treat (I used to do this all the time as a field tech). The owners would invariably say yes, and the dog was always happy to get a Slim Jim, even the ones that previously barked their heads off because I was a stranger.

So sorry that your son was blinded. I hope the facility that did this has compensated you so that their mistake won't be a terrible financial burden. Also, most people are assholes and this becomes ever apparent when there is someone with a disability involved. I'm honestly puzzled as to how we have survived this long as a species.

My brother is disabled and cant talk. He is very skinny and you can see his bones basically. He physically can't have any sort of posture and yells to talk. When we go out in public with him he is always smiling because he doesn't know the ugly faces people are giving him. He can see, he is just too focused living his own life and being happy about it. He is a 19 year old boy with Phelan McDermid Syndrome and I couldn't ask for a better brother.(he will live with us forever) I pray for him every night and hope that one day he will get even a little bit better. He was born like this and I love him with all of my heart. 1 like= 1 prayer 1 reply= 1 less rude person in his life If this comment does get any love, I will tell him how many people love him and that no matter what he looks like or how he lives, he is amazing.

Hey Molly, Thanks for making these videos. My struggle isn't the same as yours, but after serving in the Marine Corps I had a service dog and it was so irritating and frustrating when people would look at me and be scared or ask me "Hey so whats wrong with you?" "Do you have ptsd?" "Why do you have a service dog - you don't look blind" My mental health history has been difficult for me to deal with, and I don't want to open up my medical records with every person that is just curious. I hated it when people would look at me (after thousands and thousands of hours of training) and think I had a fake service dog because I didn't "look" like I had a disability. Thanks for making these videos, you help tons of people even beyond the blind community.

Everytime I enjoy your content I am filled with gratitude! Keep at it, Molly! You are really good for the world!

"Have you tried glasses??" 😂😂😂😂😂 yeah, yes Molly tried glasses, but she didn't like the look of them so she doesn't wear them 😂😂😂😂😂😂

irrelevant comment but jeez her hair is so pretty now!! it’s absolutely gorgeous

I have just come across your videos and am watching all of them. I appreciate the education I am receiving by watching them. You're inspiring, smart, and totally real. I hope more sighted people watch your Questions Not To Ask A Blind Person so that you and others don't have to continue to suffer through all the idiots you encounter. It sounds like you have a supportive community in addition to wonderful parents. I had a stroke a couple of years ago (at a young age) and have cognitive issues. But am blessed to have a loving and supportive husband. Oh, and thanks for saying we can ask you questions.

Thanks for teaching me how to say my own name in sign language. My name is Molly too! You are a real inspiration to any disabled, and non disabled people. People do the equivalent of the fingers with my bat-like hearing. They will whisper mean things to see if I will react, and if I don't, they say I am a liar.

If you didn’t say you were blind, I wouldn’t have noticed because of how well your eye contact is and everything. I honestly love how open you are and how awesome you are. You’re just amazing. You’re like a role model tbh. Also I love your dog. He’s so cute. When people have guide dogs, do you have to fill out a lot of papers and can you pick out the dog you want? I’ve always wondered that. Sorry for the paragraph. I’m new to your channel and Oml I love you sm. I would love to be like one of your friends because you seem amazing.

I used to work and live with a large group of people with various disabilities, and it was the most enlightening experience i've had. Honestly the take away i got from this video is the same moral I learned there. JUST TREAT OTHERS WITH DISABILITES AS YOU WOULD SOMEONE WITHOUT. Just because they are different, never means they require special social interaction. They are and always have been regular people.

Number 10 made me laugh out loud. That's something I only thought happened in sitcoms. XD The next step would probably be asking if you watch movies with subtitles...

It's not illegal to ask to pet them (obviously) but it's probably unsafe to pet them and illegal to without asking or without a 'yes' from the guide dogs owner. Also, just an opinion of mine; I don't think it's disrespectful at all to ask to pet a guide dog as long as you word it properly. Eg. "Will it affect your dog if I pet it? I just think he/she's really adorable" or something I like that. I'm not blind or have any disabilities (to my knowlege) so I wouldn't be sure if even that's the right way to ask. I agree on your statement of it being disrespectful and illegal to interfere with any form of help that a disabled person needs to use or have. Eg. Wheel chair or a well- guide dog :) Idk why I'm writing this, idk maybe it just bothered me that you said "and ask to pet them" lol.

Sunniesdaylees while polite phrasing is nice (better than why won’t you let me pet your dog) or just drive by petting, most of us prefer it if you don’t ask at all (not to be rude). I get on average about 10 people asking to pet each day (unless I’m grocery shopping, the. I’ll get 10 in that trip alone). I personally have fatigue and migraine problems and food allergies I have to be extremely careful about. It takes all my energy just to shop for an hour. Having a short conversation with 10 people adds a bunch of time I honestly don’t really have. I know some handlers allow it (to each their own) but I also will go non verbal due to exhaustion and/or pain So, many people think I’m just being rude and ignoring them when really I just can’t talk. I do appreciate the people who can take no for an answer and don’t push it or get all entitled ( honestly that’s the majority of people) so I try tot hank them for asking. I also like the parents who teach their kids not to distract her by screaming, calling to her, or petting her vs the parents who point her out to their kids and have them bark or call to her (that’s worse than the people asking to pet because you’re teaching your kid it’s okay). And the most frustrating people are the people who talk to Mochi instead of me. I had one lady behind me in the grocery line and I gave Mochi a treat for tasking and she said (pretending to be my dog) “I want more treats, i. Saw where you got those treats from. Give me more treats. I love treats” and stuff for like 2 min. I hope I didn’t come across as rude.

@@pucamisc I'm fortunate not to have these types of struggles I so I wouldn't understand entirely but I'm pretty understanding. This would annoy me too, I know it's nothing similar but it's kind of like someone asking me to draw something for them because I'm kinda okay at drawing and I also feel rude when I say no. It doesn't happen all the time because I'm not exposed to people seeing them all the time but if it did I would get really pissed. Sometimes I do draw something though. I don't feel like your being rude by not replying either though. I'm not one to ask to pet a guide dog either but I understand the thought process who does ask :)) But I'll never understand the thought process of those who get thier children to call or yell out to them, like hello? That woman who was pretending to be your dog was really disrespectful and your not being rude by being annoyed by it

Sunniesdaylees thank you! You’re a very kind person

You just Rock!! Your such an inspiration to all people keep being awesome 💖💖

Molly! Just discovered your channel and I'm so impressed. So many people are clueless about interacting with the blind or the non hearing. I have only about a quarter of my natural hearing left and face very similar problems. Though I know some sign language but my hearing family and friends do not. So I depend on my hearing aids which are good but can't compare to normal hearing. There is always a kind of delay in what what I think I've heard and processing that information. Thankfully my husband will translate for me. The biggest problem for me is dealing with those believe that because I'm non hearing that I'm also mentally deficient. I'm sure at the end of a busy day you're exhausted from working so hard at not missing important things. I know I am. Good job, Molly at working so thoughtfully on behalf of so many!! 💗 I read that during this pandemic there are some exceptions for mask wearing... for the deaf! This was too funny!

"Can I pet your guide dog?" "No, you can't." I RELATE! as a service dog handler myself, every time, guess what majority of service dog and guide dog handlers, will say no. Our life is in our dogs four paws, and our dogs NEED to stay focused and not get distracted. It's super important to leave a service dog or guide dog alone and not distract or pet them, they have to stay focused on their handlers.

I was always taught when they are in their harness, or the best or just work gear to not ask. They need to focus, I was taught the only time to ask is when they aren't in work mode.

Hmmm but if you were a superhero you wouldn't admit it, would you? Exposed! Molly is Daredevil!

Yes she is

I 100% agree! People shouldn't be rude about it, but hopefully they arent trying to be rude. I havent fully thought about it though. Good topic! ❤

We had a physically challenged individual that was a wonderful inspirational speaker at our seminar and suggested that the government would get away from the word "disability" and the parking signs that reference "handicapped" and move towards "sight challenged" or "physically challenged". It was a great suggestion.

I hate the "you don't look" comments. I have MS and use a wheelchair, and people will say things like "you don't look disabled" or "your too young to be disabled" like wtf man

It's possible stuff like that is meant more as a compliment, but I think Molly mentions it in another vid, the last one aobut the dumb questions. She doesn't like how it kind of sounds accusatory, like the person is suspicious that she isn't really blind.

Syndi Griner-Owens I get those comments all the time. Especially the your too young one. I take 15 different pill 2-4times a day to be able to live a normal life. And your trying to tell me I’m not disable just because I refuse to use a wheelchair in stores or long walks? Or because I’m not a certain age. Even the government doesn’t want to accept disabled people as disable. It heartbreaking!

For my patients who are legally blind, I check if they can see anything on the eye chart. If they can’t, I move to them counting my fingers at 5 feet, if they can’t see it, I continue to move closer. If they can see anything, I will use a pen light and ask if they can see the light. Some can see that, some can’t. (of course this is only for NEW patients that have never been at our office before. If we have seen the patient in the past, I can usually see in the chart what they’ve done to test vision in the past. Then I take a history, we ALWAYS dilate, if a visual correction (glasses Rx) can improve anything, I will do a refraction and see if I can get them to the big E, 20/400, on the chart. Then, they go to the doctor and they check the surface of the eye, the macula, the retina, all parts of the eye and I scribe for them, which is recording how they grade the severity of things and go from there. Blind people should always see an Ophthalmologist, an eye doctor with MD, with surgical skills. Whereas an Optometrist doesn’t hold a medical doctor degree and just goes to optometry school, focusing on refractive issues like glasses, rather than medicine.

Good question I am blind in the left eye and 20/200 in the right with optic nerve hypoplasia (This means I did not develop optic nerves during development in the uterus) I go go to a low vision specialist dr. who is renowned in research and I only trust him. my appointments take anywhere from one hour to three hours he rigorously tests me to make sure that my eyes are working as well as they can be given my condition which is congenital and incurable. and charts everything with technology I go through all sorts of machines and tests to Make sure that my eyes are staying the same And not deteriorating. Tests that others would take to check for typical eye conditions that come along w aging like glaucoma but also to check things like my field of vision and to see if the number of optic nerves I have working is still the same. I have been going to him since I was a baby so for 40 years I don’t trust anybody else. He is amazing and really spends an incredible amount of time with each of his patients. And explains everything he’s doing along the way.

@@mariahl.2052your comment was so informative but it took me back to third grade when people asked me what my vision was and I said 20/450 because I knew my prescription and they always gave me the really confused "what" face especially adults and I'd just roll my eyes and be like "I. Cant. See. The. Big. E. Better?" As a kid that bothered me but now at 21 I laugh at peoples reactions. Also the reaction when I tell them I can't see anything farther than an inch or so away without my glasses or contacts.

When you started to talk about people asking how it happened my first thought was the sentence "I do not need to divulge my medical history for you to [accommodate, serve, be nice to etc.] me." It is a phrase I see often when I talk with people/read stories about diet restrictions in restaurants - and in other situations too but they are the ones I see most as it is more personal. I have no idea how much it is said in other communities but I think it is great to learn to say - even I still am.

i really wish we were friends lmfao i feel like she’s me in a different world. you’re so beautiful molly!!
