Harold Krents’ purpose is to show that everyone is equal. He explains that even when he was just a boy being blind never stopped him from doing something he wanted to do. Although being blind is a disability, it was never one to him. Being treated different and not being given jobs because of his blindness was unfair to him. I absolutely agree that Krent is no different and can do the same or better at any job, as someone who is not disabled.
I grew up with my two brothers one of which has a disability. The truth is I never realized he had a disability, and to me he was always my big brother whom I followed around. He would take care of me and taught me things I never would have thought of on my own. It was not until I turned 16 years of age when my mother told me that he had a disability. Even though everyone else treats him different, I never have because he does everything better than I do. Just because he is disabled many people have assumed he’s unable to play sports but he can beat me at any sport hands down.
Your response to the prompt was clear, and I think your blogs greatest strength is your personal experience. I think you could have used a little bit more detail, but other than that you did an excellent job.
