#istg no one knows how to talk to disabled folks inlcuding people WHO WERE TRAINED TO DO JUST THAT

Theres a guy in my group whos most likely not as "dumb" as the social workers think he is. And the only reason they think he is "dumb" is.. he doesnt talk very well. Which is a dumb reason to dismiss someone's intelligence but they somehow also completely fail to recognise Why he has issues talking. He's a refugee. He wasnt born here, no one in his family was. I dunno how long he has been here in Germany but apparently he didnt go to school here for long and since hes 21 at most that doesnt leave many years. For that short time his german is amazing tbh considering he had no one who taught him because his parents also had to learn from scratch. Also I Assume he has CP which also affects the way he pronounces words. So no wonder he struggles putting sentences together and seems unsure of what he wants to say or stops mid-sentence. Especially since everyone is so fucking impatient with him like Jesus Christ let him finish a sentence maybe before going HUUUH??? HUUUUH???? Can you speak faster please HUUUUUH??????? Geez I dont understand him all the time either but i at least wait until hes done talking its not that hard ugh. Also his spelling is flawless. He keeps asking me to look over his german exercises and i hardly can find any spelling mistakes and he writes just fine in kurdish. Maybe if the social workers werent so damn busy interrupting him and going HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUH????? all the time they would actually understand him. But apparently thats completely beyond their capabilities and whats worse is that now everyone else in the groups keeps copying it.

Shit like this makes me wonder if I should just go back to my job cuz apparently trained people are incapable of showing basic human decency while it also reminds me of why i quit in the first place.
