Reply To: Japanese Attitude Towards The Disabled
Hi Josh!
Thank you for responding.
I’d say you’re one of the lucky ones who had the chance to move to Japan. I’m a quadriplegic by the way, and it would be a dream of mine to have the opportunity to live and work in Japan. Lately I’ve been very interested in the country and its language.
Here are a couple of the articles I’ve read. One of them mentions you.

Prejudice towards the disabled in Japan has been also mentioned in forums by various users, but one can’t be sure exactly how reliable their claims are. I guess prejudice exists anywhere, regardless of the country. But, given Japan’s history, one can’t but wonder.
Thank you for your reassurance!
Ivan.
