I am middle class with disabilities working in a restaurant. Some coworkers are mystified that I, an epileptic, would work with well-off parents. I want to go into computers and make my own name. I've been in my father's shadow all of my life.
Despite my class, I have never used my disability to exempt me from work. I go back to work the day of seizures and put in my share of the work and then some. I am more reliable than a lot of the disability-free/poorer ones.
Some act as if it's unfair for me to be richer than they, yet it's all righ for them to have the disability-free life I've never known and half-step.
I think that one thing they hate is that by being so laborious I remind them that they're not using their full potential. Whenever in need of an academic or media question, people come to me. I take books and magazines for free time and give the magazines to coworkers when I'm finished. There is no sense in throwing them away.

Epilepsy is not a disability.
Just because daddy is richer does not make you more intelligent my dear. I give all my magazines to my co workers too and I'm not expecting a pat on the back for it.
Try eating some humble pie I'm sure you'll like the taste.

Don't be so melodramatic. Epilepsy, is not a HANDICAP, it is a Neurological condition. I know, I was diagnosed with it when I was seven. I have served in the military and, have been a Mover and, Warehouse Manager for, the past twenty-four years. if You want to become independent, that,s great but, don't make it seem like You overcame some staggering obstacle. just do Your thing and, enjoy.

Hi...I have stated this before to you. Be yourself and don't worry about the world, it is always unfair. You should be proud of yourself and do what you want in life....just drive towards your goal and will find happiness at the end of the rainbow.
Life is never fair.....and there are just idiot's and ***-hole in this world who makes things diffcult...if you ignore them than you will be able to move along pretty fast......

Sorry to break it to you hun, but middle class is working class.
I don't think anyone is considered nonworking class unless they are rich and don't need to work to get everything they want. Plus if you're grown you should be on your own and not depending on your parents. If you're not grown then I see nothing wrong with you working. Even with a disability you will still want to (eventually want to be on your own, making your own money)
