Hello peoples,
I have to respond to this particularly because, there are people out there for many reasons who CANNOT read, who cannot SPEAK,etc. for whatever reason, disability, etc. IT IS A MEANS OF COMMUNICATION (picture cues)!
This is the type of thing that I have been teaching my students, who are physically and mentally challenged for the past 9 months (5 YEARS).
Many times we take things for granted or for a joke, because AT THIS PRESENT moment IT DOES NOT APPLY to us.
BE very careful, because we don't know what will happen to us in the NEXT MINUTE, HOUR, OR SECOND. You,too could have a TBI (traumatic brain injury) or some kind of incident, on your way home or whatever, which will MAKE you have to use those SAME PICTURE MENUS you are referring to.
