do you think blind people could be scared of the dark?

Answer 1

Maybe..... if they could see it

Answer 2

Yes. My friend is registered blind. She is 100% blind in one eye and has less than 20% vision in her other eye. She gets very anxious when she has to go anywhere after dusk. As soon as the light starts to fail her ability to see anything at all diminishes very quickly and she becaomes afraid of tripping over or getting lost.

Please don't ask questions that are meant to be funny but are actually just offensive. Anyway, I'vegiven you a serious answer.

Answer 3

I have not known any totally blind person to ask. I can only imagine that "dark" is irrelevant to a person born blind, i.e. there is nothing to compare to make the term exist.

In peace,

Answer 4

mrplingard, your question is almost like a blind person leading a blind person! If your brain is not blind, open up and start thinking, maybe for a change!

Answer 5

I think blind people would not be scared of the dark itself, but bad people are bolder in the dark and so they would be more wary of it, same as sighted people. If they are experienced and smart.

Answer 6

many blind people can distinguish light from dark so I would say yes.

Answer 7

They're so used to it... they're probably scared of what there is in the dark. But it's the same fear that WE have.

Answer 8

I think their dark would be them thinking that someone is there and them not talking.....But then again that would freak me a little too.

Answer 9

whata stupid question and offensive to blind people

Answer 10

depends on what they see all-day long i think it should not be an issue.
