Mairs even goes as far to say that, “Because I hate being crippled, I sometimes hate myself for being a cripple.

I feel as though that Mairs venting is good because some people claim in order to be honest with another individual, you first have to be honest with yourself and Mairs shows that. If Mair is honest with herself she can guide another person with being honest about their feelings. For example my grandmother has diabetes and she sometimes lies about how she feel.

Those within the society that were sick would be seen as a barrier that stops society from progressing. These people were also seen as deviant & their role in society was labelled the ‘sick role’ which also came with rights & responsibilities. If you were declared sick you were immune from going to: school, college, work and social & family obligations. This also made responsibilities for the family as Parsons believed it was a key function and their duty to care for the other sick or dependent members of the family.
