I find it unbelievable that SG people would react unkindly to her and Esme. I always thought Singaporeans are kind people. Or at least a substantial majority. So much so that SG people have been run over by their own government that has let in all the foreigners. Simply because Singaporeans are such wimps.
Are those who reacted badly to Esme really Singaporeans or some other rojak people living here?
It is troubling that people can react in such bad ways to her.
To be honest, I like dogs more than gay people.
It is possible that people don't realize that she's blind because she looks like she can see and is just bringing around a dog into supermarkets etc...
Hearing her say she went travelling with her family to Thailand and Korea for a break, I wonder what can travelling mean when she can't see? I began to realize that the main part of travelling to enjoy a different place is being able to see. That's how you know you're in another country.
Without sight, and just going through customs, how do you feel you are in another country and not just in another part of Singapore? What benefit or relaxation is there in a vacation where one place is the same as the one you left (without sight)?
When she said her dad wouldn't go out dinner with the family because of Esme and the bad reactions of the public, I feel it's not right of her dad to do that. As a dad, shouldn't he stick by her? It's just public opinion.
When someone tries to be funny, her family member should just shout at the offender:
She's blind and this is her guide dog. You want to be blind also? You wanna give her sight back? If not, shut the hell up.
