Paralympics <olympics for the disabled>?

Question

if the paralympics were televised in the united states who here, besides me, would watch alot of them if not all

Answer 1

I&#039;m Youth &amp; Disability support worker, and would watch it and tape it, to use as a tool to empower my clients, to try new things, and with a little support they can achieve much too.

The people in the special/paralympics have amazing stories to tell, on how they have made it, usually with very little sponsorship that the regular Olympics competitors gets.  

Answer 2

I would. I&#039;m in Canada not the US but we get most US stations.  

Answer 3

I would watch as much as I could.

Answer 4

me i would love to watch it but as national TV have to last say we are never going to get to see it in UK gets right on my nerves

Answer 5

I would.  I used to compete so I know the reason we don&#039;t get the proper funding we need is because no one is interested and most people think &quot;Special Olympics&quot; covers all disabled.  Which they don&#039;t &quot;Special Olympics&quot; only covers people with developmental delays and Paralympics cover people with physical disabilities.  

Answer 6

I would.

Answer 7

I would watch every televised minute, and record it so I could watch it again and again.

Answer 8
