This story could have been just another run of the mill account of another customer dissatisfied with the service he got from a fast food restaurant, but it was not.  The reason it wasn't was because the dissatisfied client was a little person whose challenge comes because he is below average height. This happened in a McDonald's in South Carolina when an employee who was supposed to wait on this client and hear his complaint about the wrong order, instead of listening and redressing the mistake, reacted by screaming terrified because the client was a little person. http://www.godlikeproductions.com/forum1/message526584/pg1 

This customer was embarrassed and humiliated before other customers at the restaurant because he is whom he is.  This is a common problem that people with disabilities face on a daily basis.  many people do not know how to react when confronted with a person that does not meet their predetermined concept of an "average" person or behavior.  this is very sad because it may lead to the embarrassment of the person with a disability and to the rejection of that person in the social circles in which the person with a disability has to interact.  Because many people do not know how to interact or react  with a person with a disability those people are precluded from meeting and counting among their friends many people who can make great contributions to social circles and society as a whole.

The customer in this case does not want to sue McDonald's but is instead requesting that McDonald's employees be required to undergo sensitivity training with regards to people with disabilities.  His request made me think of how little the media is doing in helping members of society as a whole understand people with disabilities and to become familiar with some of the less evident or common disabilities and conditions that may influence people's behavior -Asperberger being one of these lesser known disabilities by the general public.  Because of the general public's lack of experience dealing with a person with a particular dsiability they may be intolerant of the odd behavior, not empathetic, or even unfair to the person struggling with the condition.

i believe that television networks should include in their TV series such as situation comedies and dramas, characters with a lesser known disability and present his/her daily living experiences with family, friends and society in general.  This is an opportunity to educate millions of people so that they can become better prepared to understand and identify with a person with a disability and instead of openly rejecting that person deal with him/her as they would with anyone else.
