I have to be honest with you. I did not know the Olympics had Paralympic Games like inclusive games that involves persons with disabilities. And What do I think about it? I think the Olympics might just be my favorite thing right now! It's the effort for me. So, t he Paralympics were basically established to provide athletes with disabilities the opportunity to compete at the highest level of international sport. Sport is a thing that unites everyone; Allowing persons with disabilities to have their own sporting event. I don't think the Paralympics know how BIG of a deal this is. This challenges stereotypes that people with disabilities can't do anything; There is a general misconception that the minute one becomes disabled or is born disabled, the person can't succeed in things. These games cancels the stereotypes and remind us that persons with disabilities are living their life and CAN AMOUNT to something in life. The Games also draws attention to issues
