"Do you know sign language?" ...Jesus Christ. If only people thought for a second before they spoke.
@Caramel Cupcake Wow. It's almost not even insulting because that is so dumb. It's hard not to be mad at them for that, honestly, but I really think that people today are so self-focused that they aren't really listening to people most of the time. I just can't believe that she did that lol, at least she knew sign language hahaha
Kiwi They typed cause you can ask siri to turn on voice so when you touch something like youtube it says youtube so you know if your clicking the right stuff
Kiwi. Some people have others to type for them sooooo I hope you weren’t trying to be rude.
I know sign language! (Kinda) I'm still pretty new
There’s ppl who r blind n deaf so i would like to be more informed about their way of communication i think it’s tactile sign language
Watching this video like "oh, I'm going to learn how to be more polite and respectful"...
Final thoughts: "I only learned that people are stupid"...
😂😂😂👌👌👌👏👏👏
Haha yesss!!! Watching this video like didn't everyone learn this and I don't know kindergarten.
I HOLE HEARTED AGREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SweetSallyRadio people are not stupid.
Crazy Jossy A,K,a,J kitten well i mean your right but sometimes they don’t use the big brain god gave them
Someone: "you look too normal to be blind."
You: "You sound too normal to be able to see."
more like you sound too dumb to be allowed out on your own...
I never knew she was blind cause she doesnt act like it
Sarah Botticello, *_how can you act blind_*
Doveine Films lol 😂
@@sarahbotticello3482 What is acting blind?
Vision related stories:Once somebody was like.. it's so sad you can't see the world in full color, you have no idea how pretty it is! And I was like.. what? I'm don't have dull color vision, everything is just blurry. Then to justify themselves they said: what color is my sweater (I answered the right color, forgot now though, let's say purple) and when I answered correctly, she said, no, it's actually yellow. I was like.. bruh. I'm not an idiot and I see color.
Nico, How rude of them to lie to your bootiful face
Ohhh, God..I hate liars. (From experience)
"Going blind didn't change who I am. It changed how I interact with the world." That's a great quote.
No it’s not
@diamondPixL yes it is
Honestly this quote will work well with anything
So true it is such a good quote
@@diamondpixl yessss it is
Who else waved their hand in front of their face when she said “It makes sound. You can hear when somebody is doing this...” 😂
me
i did... lol
Lol I actually did XD
T12 Stories yep
Me 😂😂😂
Yep, I've gotten most of these! Ever have people start talking louder when they find out you can't see?...
Personally I don't think this is entirely crazy. Subconsciously a sighted person is checking things like lip movement and facial expressions to try and fill in the gaps if they miss anything the person is saying. My nan used to tell me she could hear better when she had glasses on :) but not everyone needs raised voices thrown at them 🙂
@@kerryh3833 I agree but still blind people have learned how to hear pretty well
@@kerryh3833 I can hear better with my glasses on. For sure.
Or when they ask the person you’re with if you’re really blind. Ooooh my god do I hate that.
@@BrownedHound Do you think blind people are completely incapable of doing anything? That they're helpless and that there are no sort of tools that help blind people navigate their lives? You should probably watch more of this girl's videos because you are extremely ignorant. To call someone a liar for being blind is one of the most disgusting things a person can do. Imagine going through a traumatic experience and literally going BLIND just for people to constantly tell you that you're not actually blind.
And there is something called "speech to text." There are SO many tools to help blind people use the internet, like tools that convert speech into text, text into speech, verbally explain what images are, etc. Next time, think and research before you embarrass yourself and hurt someone with a comment like this.
Molly: people say why do you have tattoos when you can’t see them and why do you wear makeup if you can’t see it
Me: Molly just say then why do I wear clothes if I can’t see them
It would be a really good comeback
Best comeback ever.....
Omg you’re a genius 🤯🤩
If a blind person is on a nude beach.
Is it more an advantage or disadvante not to seeing the other people naked?
And does she/he has also to take of her/his clothes? ;-)
👏👏👏 brilliant
you made me laugh out loud
i wear glasses and i fkn hate when people try them on and say “WOW UR BLIND”
child i am not blind, i can see, just not very well.
IKR! I hate how when I take off my glasses to clean them, people will say, oh what color hair is mine? Wow you look so different! Wow can you see me?
Same
Ikr ik my profile doesnt have glasses but i take em' off whem i film (:
@@jbor688 My answer to "Can you see me?" when I'm not wearing my glasses or contacts is "Not clearly but there is a blurry idiot standing in front of me." If you're more than four inches away from my face you are just a blur.
@Daniela Madrid I honestly couldn't relate more
The sign language question totally cracks me up because my husband is Deaf and I can't tell you how many hostesses have handed him a braille menu. I don't know what these people are thinking.
What the... how can people be THAT stupid?
Right?
My blind husband was given the subtitled glasses for hearing impairment at the movie theater... We had a good laugh at it because he has frequently told me how subtitles are his nemesis. Why do people confuse these deafness with blindness?!?
Oh my god, are you serious?! XD People!
Honestly people can be dumb
Ugh, the part where she told about being asked "what happened to you" was so relatable.
I'm not blind, but I suffer from clinical depression and often when I said it to someone who didn't know they went like: "Oh! Why? What happened?". And it really bugged me and I couldn't understand why I felt so upset when I heard it. With time I realised it was an incredibly inappropriate question.
Like, wtf man? I say I have depression and you're literally asking why? What are you expecting me to tell you? Do you want to hear about how my parents were neglectful and left me alone for hours when I was like 5, and then were disappointed on me if I acted like a child and cried? Are you expecting me to casually tell you about my history of sexual abuse when I was a teen? Then what the fuck is that question? Do you want to hear about the meds I take or how I don't really know if my disorder is like, inherited from my depressed parents and maybe there's just chemicals that my brain doesn't make in the right quantities? What the fuck? I don't have to prove myself to anyone, if I told you I have depression is for you to be aware that maybe some tasks will take me longer than for other people, or that I might have a bit of trouble for certain things, not for you to quiz me on it like you're asking which my favourite icecream flavour is.
(Sorry for the rant but seriously what is wrong with people??)
When people ask me that I just straight up tell them it’s a very personal and rude question 😒
Yea...my go to answer to questions like that is usually along the lines of "I am not obligated to share that information with you." It tends to make people really uncomfortable...
I’m sorry I just can’t... “HAVE YOU TRIED GLASSES?” aaaaaaaaaaahhh
I would be *very* surprised if her parents didn't take her to an ophthalmologist as soon as they noticed that she couldn't see as clearly as other children.
@@ragnkja Unless they couldn't pay for it
@@somethingclassified2286 She grew up in Canada and they have free health care so they probably did. I think she said once she was diagnosed at 5 and it got worse at 13/14 though I might be wrong about that.
@@NotLaura-Baka22 oh I didn't know that 😂😅
God, why didn't she think of that???
When she said "do you know sign language" and the camera zoomed in on her expression, an AD began to play, and I thought she just ended the video with that look and I cracked up hard lol
Andrew JW same lol
Same
Ahahaha samee I thought that would've been an amazing ending
Same!! Haha
I got the same thing but I also got it with "have you tried glasses?"
Molly is so honest I love her 😂❤️
I have a cornea disease. My brother still asks me if cars are coming on my side when we are on a crossroad. One day I sad no cars on my side. He moved off then jammed on the breaks and swore at me as a car flew past. I said dude you know I cant see.
Bruh howd she see your comment
😂
I know I love her
Estephany Flamenco she has a voice thingy on her phone that when she puts her finger on something
she looks so perfect in this hair color and cut💞🤗
Also the lipstick, it looks amazing together 😍
Suits her so perfectly! I wish I could pull it off lol
SHE DOES!
Molly is absolutely a beautiful young Lady.
Once someone found out I was visually impaired, they then proceeded to ask "oh, can you hear me, do I need to talk louder?"
A friend of mine is blind and when people ask me questions about him like "would he like a refill?" I politely say "I don't know, you'll have to ask him" and they always look kind of shocked and taken back, like 'wait, what? i can't do that'! people are funny sometimes.
JesusFreak77 HE IS BLIND NOT DEAF
@@ligood exactly!
JesusFreak77 ppl do that with me and my aunt but she is hearing impaired and has hearing aids and is blind so I guess I get that more, but she can hear so like wtf bro
I seriously don't understand that lol like blind doesn't equal deaf or mentally incompetent
JesusFreak77 I’m legally blind and I’ll be using my cane at school and people come up to me and my best friend and they will do that exact same thing and my friend says the exact same thing that you say
I’m not blind but I wear glasses and every time I have them off and someone asks me how many fingers they’re holding up I cringe 😅
nugget_kween same
SAME 😂🤣
SAME🤣
I hate it when people do that
nugget_kween oh my gosh yes. Like it’s just blurry I can still see
When I tell people I'm face blind, I've had some people deliberately switch names on me, just to screw with me. It just makes it that much harder for me to eventually connect their name to their hair/ accessories/ smile/ etc. So DONT DO THIS
That one sucks. I used to have that problem due to a psychiatric problem. Seeing people that effectively had no faces was rather disturbing. They sort of had faces, but they were more like rubber masks that lacked much detail.
Over the years, it's something that I struggle with because I have no mind's eye and no ability to take what a person looks like now and compare that to what they looked like before a hair cut or change in clothing. I've somewhat improved by working to focus on bone structure and eye color, things that don't change as easily, but it's not easy and likely isn't even possible for somebody with actual face blindness.
@@SmallSpoonBrigade Very interesting! Fortunately for me, I perceive faces fine and can see them in perfect detail, but I don't recognize them. I also can't picture people! Everything I notice about others tends to be subconscious; it throws me off too much when I try to deliberately focus on specific features.
What’s face blind? I’m sorry if that sounds rude😕 I’m just curious 🙂
@@eleanorbrockett6554 No worries! I'm happy to talk about it :D It's a bit of a misnomer, actually. The actual name for it is prosopagnosia, but it means I can see faces just fine, I can't recognize them. This includes close friends, my own parents, my reflection, etc. My channel teaches about it if you're interested in learning more, but I have to rely on other cues to recognize people and it's just not as accurate as the face for recognition.
And that’s why I have no trust people
It is staggering how many people do not know the difference between deaf and blind. Or think that sign language is gang related. 🤦♀️
I won't lie: I thought you didn't look blind either when I first saw in Shane's video. Not because of something physical or some cliche like the sunglasses. It's just that you're so expressive with your eyes.
I never met a blind person before so my basis was mostly movies and tv.
Every time there's a blind character they're always make so the actor have their eyes unfocused and they never move their eyes or head. So even if they're talking with someone next to them they still seem to be staring straight ahead.
So to see you with your eyes on someone's face while you're talking to them and even rolling your eyes to the camera, it was surprising. And I also realized how ignorant I was...
So... sorry about that. I've been watching your videos and loving them so much.
Caroline Oliveira same
It's nice to know that you two have realised your mistakes
If you look closely, when she is looking at the camera, her eyes sort of vibrate or shake.
@@oliviahand8439 It's called nystagmus, she addressed it on the video "why my eyes never stop shaking"
Why does anyone think that anything shown in the media is real? Every media production is just that... a production. Nothing on TV, on CZcams, on Netflix, or any other media outlet isn’t orchestrated to illicit a specific response.
“How do you drive?”
Molly: I Don’t! VERY ILLEGAL!
Maybe when self-driving cars become fully autonomous! :P
Shane would beg to differ
then i watch her driving rylands g wagon
@@louseager7940 she said illegal not impossible..
@@nZifnab see how she responds
Stranger: “why don’t you look blind?”
Blind person: “I’m sorry I didn’t rip my eyes out of my skull so you know that I can’t see.”
People would say "you dont look blind" because she is able to focus and pin-point her eyes to an object, and come back to it everytime she takes her eyes off of it. Look how she can look into the camera without any trouble. When someone is able to focus on objects like that all the time, its hard to notice that shes blind. Its the first thing you notice about a blind person. They are looking into the abyss

What’s your favorite band? This has nothing to do with your disability, it’s just a very important question that I ask literally everybody
Go u
I would love to see you follow a Bob Ross tutorial. Obviously following his voice only. You seem very creative and I think this would be a fun and interactive video. Please don’t take it in the wrong way I mean it with all good intentions.
Zaheer Sooliman that we be a great video!
No mistakes, just happy accidents! I'd love to see her use something like glow-in-the-dark paint and follow along, then "see" the end product light up when the lights are turned off
Zaheer Sooliman i feel like she would have fun doing this and tbh it would probably be very very pretty!!!
Zaheer Sooliman she’ll probably shock us once again
This would be such a creative video!
This guy told me “why does everyone watch her? She is blind” I said “I don’t watch her because she is blind I watch her because of her personality I love her.” After that he didn’t say anything else.
Ppprrrreeeeaaaacccccchhhhhhhhh thats a question I get everyday
There we go! That is the right answer
Wow what a savage u are😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤠🤠🤠
That's literally why I watch anyone I watch. Great personality.
Like. I've watched many people do the same things in their videos. It's easy when they have their own personality in it.
Good for you
I love that
Her eyecontact is amazing... She is so natural
Muun She has a light right behind the camera so she can know where it is at all times
It's also easy to look straight forward
Facts
"Do you know sign language". 😂😂😂. I'm sorry I couldn't stop laughing that someone would ask you that.
You might not be like Daredevil but your still a superhero in my book ❤
Agreed! 💕
aw, you're- so sweet!
Totally agree she totally is
Justin Natasmai Awww so sweet! And SO true!
Amen!
Have you ever read “Do Not Touch” in Braille?
If so, it must have been pretty unsettling 😂
Ahahahaha!
this is a genius question.
Braille signs are the same as a sighted persons!! It's a sign,with an instruction......
Tich 123 it’s a joke.. because a sign that you have to touch to read says do not touch.. ya know?
This was a cute one 😂
I’m ashamed to say I might have asked some of these questions myself so thank you for educating sighted people so we don’t make the same mistakes!
I was blind in one eye and almost had surgery on my eye. It was a scary time for me. But now thankfully I’m better! Anyway people would always take my glasses off and wave there hands in front of me and I could see them out of one eye and like you said I could also feel them doing it. Then after I told them to stop I can see them they took my glasses and broke them. Like WHAT!!!!!!!!! Who would do that to a 11 year old almost blind girl. Uggggggggggg I was sooooooooooooo mad!!!!!!!!!
But ya that is my story and I appreciate you sharing your with us! Love your channel sooooooo much! 💕❤️❤️❤️❤️💕❤️❤️❤️❤️💕
Shyann, I am really so sorry that this happened to you. I had to sit here and think about what I had just read before I responded because I would surely get kicked off youtube with my description of these low life losers that did this to you.
Oh my God. People dont think. I hope you're okay
That is so rude of them! They broke your glasses?!? They are jerks!
"MMmmMMmm! THis PerSOn iS BliNd! ThaT mUst mEAn i CaN BrEAk ThEIr GlaSSes!"
Somebody broke my 6 year old friend glasses
Obsessed with your hair & begging for a killer bee sweatshirt for Christmas from my parents!!!!!!
Write to Santa! ;)
My son was made blind by brain surgery when he was a couple of days old. He’s now 7 and he gets so angry when people ask me questions about him. Like he can hear you. I understand where you’re coming from molly xx
I also hav a Lil bro. Blind from birth, some autistic behaviors aswell. He’s 9 and i totally get were you and Molly are comn from. It tinggles my triggers aswell as my bro
So sorry that your son was blinded. I hope the facility that did this has compensated you so that their mistake won't be a terrible financial burden. Also, most people are assholes and this becomes ever apparent when there is someone with a disability involved. I'm honestly puzzled as to how we have survived this long as a species.
@@LordPrometheous Fyi, that's not how brain surgery works. No one compensates you for side effects because they aren't mistakes so much as complications of saving someone's life. :/
Not trying to undermine this issue but it may be worth pointing out that some people do that even if a child has no disability. Some people just act like kids are stupid or generally don't want to communicate with them.
I agree. He has EARS.
The "turns to another person to ask about you" isn't just for disabilities, it's pretty common when you're dealing with "language barriers" too. Have heard many a tale about Japanese folks that would only talk to the most Asian-looking person in a group of foreigners, even if they were the ones with the lowest language abilities. =v= People are weird.
i felt this one!!! i’m fluent in japanese and english (duh) but i can’t tell you how many people start speaking to my friends or family as if i can’t understand what they are saying!! sorry i don’t look as asian 😭lol
My best friend is blind and when ever I’m out with her when they ask these questions it really gets me angry, but she’s just chill bout it
You always look gorgeous but today there’s something different, you look amazing! Feeling the bronze goddess vibes and those brows are goals
I thought she looked weird. Like not bad, just different.
Pink hair suits you so well!!! It brightens up your skin and wow, I just love it so much :,)
?????
I know right!!💗
I like her hair too, very pretty!
Jasmyn Mae I like her in purple, but the pink is so cool too!
Why is your hair pink?
HAHAHAHA the part where you were asked, "Do you know sign language?" I hate to admit it, but it took me a second. Brain fart I know, but it was funny. Not the question necessarily, but the fact that it didn't click in my brain immediately. I was like, "Seems like a logical... wait, what?"
Love your videos, Molly! Very inspiring, educational, and uplifting! :)
I've been asked "How do you know when you're awake?" What does that even mean??
Wh..
ok did she get more tanned recently? bc our queen is glowing
Sonia Wysocka just bad makeup
Tiny Gypsy she’s actually very good at makeup, even sister James complimented her
@@tinygypsy3707 I wouldn't say it's bad makeup. Maybe just a darker shade.
Right? Living for this tan look 😍
Sonia Wysocka she doesnt know if she did

SAME or they take off your glasses put their hand in your face and say "how many fingers am I holding up"
Same and it is not funny like what if they had glasses i have the same trouble
You understand me....like IT’S JUST BLURRY
Patrick Szabo THAT SO RUDE I mean I hate it when someone takes off my friends glasses and say “Can you see me?!” Guess what I do and say...
Guessed yet I say “LEAVE HER ALONE”and I..... kinda push them into a table......
Yeah u don’t wanna take off my friends glasses...
Anyone else love Molly’s hair, I mean... it’s so pretty!
I lost my best friend who was also blind. She was the strongest person I knew. She could literally do everything. Watching your videos helps me. Sending all my love to you. You rock Molly! You are gorgeous and so sweet!
“so you’re like daredevil???” ~literally garrett in shane’s video
I had forgotten that. I woder if it bothered her a lot then.
From what I've gathered, I don't think Mollie really takes things too personally. She is still human and of course has bad days or moments but this is why she makes her content is to educate people.
That's exactly what I thought about! I do believe shane even asked if he could pet Gallop right away, too. Lol I also wondered if it bothered her in the moment or even after while reflecting on the interaction.
@@featherrosemain4691 Since she watched Shane's videos, maybe she was expecting that? Or maybe she was so happy to meet them that she did not get bothered.
Not sure. When someone is bubbly, is always hard to realize those kind of things. How much was she hurt by their initial reaction only she knows.
Girl your hair is popping.
Also moral of this video is DONT BE INSENSITIVE :) love ya Molly
Molly, I love these videos so much! I stumbled across your content just yesterday because I want to write a blind character for a story but wanted to be sure I represented her right. Now I'm hooked, for the creation of my character but way more than that, for if/when I meet blind people, in the hopes of being a source of a smile instead of exasperation if we did end up talking. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences.
"Do you know sign language?" That question broke me. I have very little faith in humanity and the general intelligence of people. But holy hell that just broke me.
I’m cross eyed, so when I take of my glasses, I see two of EVERYTHINGG. And people just hold up numbers, and wave there hands in front of my face and there just like *”CaNN yOU SeE THiS?”* And I’m just like, *”BOIII”*
I know! I just wear glasses but people are like, cam you see me? And I get so mad because I am not blind, just things are blurry.
kmsignore me too this is so relatable
me too!!! im also sqwint
That happens all the time too me always ask me can you take the glasses aut and then they star asking stupid questions.
That was basically my existence in one comment
"Have you tried glasses??" 😂😂😂😂😂 yeah, yes Molly tried glasses, but she didn't like the look of them so she doesn't wear them 😂😂😂😂😂😂
So, how do you drive?
My dog is trained and guides me with his barks.
We can’t drive.
We can’t drive.
@Dan Sgambelluri It’s not, moronskeep asking that.
Hey Molly,
Thanks for making these videos. My struggle isn't the same as yours, but after serving in the Marine Corps I had a service dog and it was so irritating and frustrating when people would look at me and be scared or ask me "Hey so whats wrong with you?" "Do you have ptsd?" "Why do you have a service dog - you don't look blind" My mental health history has been difficult for me to deal with, and I don't want to open up my medical records with every person that is just curious. I hated it when people would look at me (after thousands and thousands of hours of training) and think I had a fake service dog because I didn't "look" like I had a disability. Thanks for making these videos, you help tons of people even beyond the blind community.
Nothing annoys me more than people completely ignoring me and talking to the person I’m with.
Like “HELLOOO!” My legs don’t work but my mouth does! 🤣
That’s always weird, when someone finds out you have one thing, and they start acting like you have everything. Like, I have a physical delay, that doesn’t mean I don’t speak English.
And your brain, too.
I get you there. I have a disability + a load of mental health disorders and people treat me like a 1 year old! They are so patronising!
Jesus Christ! The struggle
For me it's people completely ignoring me and petting my psychiatric dog I'm like nope he sure isn't here to help me but for your pure enjoyment to pet 😂 please ignore me and go ahead and pet
irrelevant comment but jeez her hair is so pretty now!! it’s absolutely gorgeous
I’m in a wheelchair, and I’ve experienced a lot of these things with inappropriate questions. I hate when people ask my caregiver or my mom questions instead of me.
Everytime I enjoy your content I am filled with gratitude! Keep at it, Molly! You are really good for the world!
If you didn’t say you were blind, I wouldn’t have noticed because of how well your eye contact is and everything. I honestly love how open you are and how awesome you are. You’re just amazing. You’re like a role model tbh. Also I love your dog. He’s so cute. When people have guide dogs, do you have to fill out a lot of papers and can you pick out the dog you want? I’ve always wondered that. Sorry for the paragraph. I’m new to your channel and Oml I love you sm. I would love to be like one of your friends because you seem amazing.
Fangirl.Animations

I just started watching and I had no idea she was blind
I love your profile picture
@Eline Verheul I believe she uses a program that reads the comments or just uses her phone ( the iPhone is extremely accessible)
How the fuck is she supposed to read your comments she is blind wtf are you THINKING?
Does anyone else think Molly would be an amazing elementary school teacher?
Thx the likes(edit)
omg yes.
Ya kinda
Emily loves Sparkles But she could have an assistant or something I guess. I just think her personality would go great working with little kids.
They have blind and deaf schools. She'd be really great with kids who are going blind or are new to it. I think she could be really comforting and help them a lot
Da Tina öbvi
With the “what happened to you?” question I would approach the question in a curious way and give them the option to answer? Like I would ask the question “Hey I was just wondering if how you became blind. It’s okay if you don’t want to answer” But this is only hypothetical. I wouldn’t ask this IRL
i asked myself the same, i think if you ask in a nicer way it would be okay, but i guess it depends really on the person you are talking to.
Number 10 made me laugh out loud. That's something I only thought happened in sitcoms. XD
The next step would probably be asking if you watch movies with subtitles...
I am in *love* with her hair😍😍
Saaaaammmeee
Yeah, it's beautiful!
Whats the point of telling dat she cant read
yeah she is so cute
@@creamcupcake1790 Yes, but she has an app on her phone so she can listen to the comments. :) Im . sure shed love to hear these amazing things!
“CAN YOU SEE THIS” “HOW MANY FINGERS AM I HOLDING UP?” Relatable to people with glasses
Zay VanNess omg yes. I have glasses and every one asks me that
Yes!!! And everyone wants to try your glasses on. Why? Then they ask how they look... I CAN’T SEE HOW YOU LOOK BECAUSE YOU HAVE MY GLASSES!!!!
Omg yess
@@NikkiAMurrayAvon I know right! If someone says they like me without glasses better and I say "I like you more without my glasses on aswell"
water princess hahaha! I wear contacts now... so much easier 😆
I have just come across your videos and am watching all of them. I appreciate the education I am receiving by watching them. You're inspiring, smart, and totally real. I hope more sighted people watch your Questions Not To Ask A Blind Person so that you and others don't have to continue to suffer through all the idiots you encounter. It sounds like you have a supportive community in addition to wonderful parents. I had a stroke a couple of years ago (at a young age) and have cognitive issues. But am blessed to have a loving and supportive husband. Oh, and thanks for saying we can ask you questions.
Thanks for teaching me how to say my own name in sign language. My name is Molly too! You are a real inspiration to any disabled, and non disabled people. People do the equivalent of the fingers with my bat-like hearing. They will whisper mean things to see if I will react, and if I don't, they say I am a liar.
People ask me questions about my autistic son when he's standing right beside me.
Person: Would your son like some juice?
Me: He's right here. Ask him.
Person: *awkward silence*
All. The. Time.
This is so fckn right! My little brother is fully blind and has some autistic behaviours. We get this a lot aswell
Isn't it just weird to feed things to other people's children without a parent's permission? I always feel really uncomfortable interacting with children because I worry their parent's might be angry with me. Stranger danger and all.
-just an alternative point of view
@@gebogift5562 Yes. Its hard to understand when you have not experienced it. But you're right. Its just anoying when you still see that treatment when you are 16. FX
This is why I hate Earth.
@@gebogift5562 if it's a little kid (single digit age) and the parents are there, ask the parents if it's ok for you to give them something. Once they consent, then you can safely assume it's ok to talk to the child. That way, you're not talking about the child like they're invisible; you're just getting permission first, as you should. Or you can ask the child, "hey, would your mom/dad mind if you have some juice/candy/animal crackers?". That way, you're not being weird about it, the child feels included, and you haven't just spoken directly to someone's child as if their parents aren't there. Either way would be fine for any mentally stable adult. If the parents take offense to that, then they are the problem, not you. What you don't do is just speak to children without acknowledging their parent/guardian whatsoever. That's a quick way to piss someone off. Otherwise, you're fine. It also works this way with dogs. Ask if it's ok for the dog to have a Slim Jim or dog treat (I used to do this all the time as a field tech). The owners would invariably say yes, and the dog was always happy to get a Slim Jim, even the ones that previously barked their heads off because I was a stranger.
"Can I pet your guide dog?"
"No, you can't."
I RELATE!
as a service dog handler myself, every time, guess what majority of service dog and guide dog handlers, will say no. Our life is in our dogs four paws, and our dogs NEED to stay focused and not get distracted. It's super important to leave a service dog or guide dog alone and not distract or pet them, they have to stay focused on their handlers.
Brieanna Bananas I love dogs but i have never asked if i could pet one because that would be extremely rude
Let him be a dog
Service dogs are kind of fucked up when you think about
Brieanna Bananas true I look for 1 second to see if it’s a service dog and if not I ask to pet it
I was always taught when they are in their harness, or the best or just work gear to not ask. They need to focus, I was taught the only time to ask is when they aren't in work mode.
cute merchandise. I love your idea of the little bee coming out of it's home in the pocket of the shirt.
Molly hopefully this will make your day. It's a quote.
Kindness is a language the deaf can hear and the blind can see.
do you know sign language?
Molly: "no"
*proceeds by showing a bit of sign language*
Better answer would be if they put some Braille on that sign. :D
She honestly doesn’t even need to know sign language, she say hear and talk
@tinyMm Dead people???
@@haidynivy8778 obviously a typo.
tinyMm that’s offensive to “dead” people
I love how you say that you're yourself and you just happen to be blind and how blindness hasn't changed who you are and how it's just changed how you interact with the world.
My name is Ella 2
i can see that is the case for her. but and i am going to say not everyone gets to be as fortuinite as she. for many people it does make life hard for them and there is no real way around it. i am not trying to say she did not work and does not work hard i am just saying that just because things are positive in her life does not mean it can work that way for everyone no mater how hard you try.
Nice name
ellamj 123 NICE NAME AYYYYE
I love this channel. i like your personality. And also just because YOU can't see it, you still know it's there. Ugh, some people.
I just found your channel today and I'm already so glad I did. I am disabled and have wanted to make a CZcams channel for quite a while now but I was hesitating about it because of online bullying and fear that nobody would ever want to listen to me lol. You are real, you're smart, and you're fun. Anyone leaving rude comments saying this video is bad or whatever, if they were in your position I can guarantee they would get sick of the stupid questions or statements real quick....can't wait to keep watching your content! 😊
When she asked are you dare devil my mind instantly went to Garrett watts in the Shane Dawson videos
Gizmo Johannessen same 😂
Gizmo Johannessen omg same 😂 😂 😂
Gizmo Johannessen omg I thought the same thing 😂😂
okay but same lmao
Yes
*starts waving hand in front of face to hear it*
Lol yup.
You can also feel it like you're fanning yourself.
Same lol
You can really hear your sleeves moving!
Thank you molly for posting this this video I'm disabled have CP and use a wheelchair and most of the questions you get I get except the blind ones so I love your videos I feel connected because it seems you understand!!
Even though I am sighted you really inspire me since you never let your disability stop you and you just carry on with your day like an ordinary person and I think everyone should look up to you
How do you shave?? I have a hard time shaving as it is so i just want to know. Thx for keeping my hopes up. My sister went blind 2 years ago and she is to young to shave so I can't ask her that. She tells me that you are the one person who keeps her beliving that she has the best future. Thank you for making her happy I have never seen her happier since she started watching you. Thanks
Waxing. Threading. Or you can shave by touch.
Also, you don't have to shave. Body hair is natural and there's nothing wrong with choosing not to remove it for any reason. You say this as if your sister will *have* to shave one day and just nope. Noone of any of the multitude of genders out there has to shave any part of their body unless they want to.
Maybe she has someone help her or lasered it off?
@@AlexaFaie bruh 😂fucking dumb
@@HelloHello-js6dm no.... She has a point, and it's up to the little sister.
This is just a joke please don't get upset anyone:
How do you drive?
Molly:I don't, it's very illegal
Meanwhile on Shane's video....
This is funny 😂
She also just drove one of the Dolan twin's car lol
Ya she drives but kinda slow lol 😂
@@prettiepati but in that video she only drove down the street, and she even had trouble with that
So true
The fingers thing is even more annoying because I’m legally blind, but I have enough vision to actually see the number of fingers they’re holding up…so yeah I bet a few people probably thought I was lying about my visual impairment when I was little and when other little kids asked me about it lol
I 100% agree! People shouldn't be rude about it, but hopefully they arent trying to be rude. I havent fully thought about it though. Good topic! ❤
I don't even like talking to strangers, period. I don't understand how people can see someone disabled and immediately think it's a free pass to interrogate them?!
They touch us without permission too! Grab our wheelchairs, pat our heads. Awful stuff.
Alex Niño Seriously? Pat your head? Wow, some people have no boundries!
-I had someone for no reason just hual off and kick me hard in the shin on my left leg.
I was like "Dude, WTF?
And he said, You have a fake leg, you can't feel it."
I said, yea, my *RIGHT* leg is fake, but even so, you just don't kick someone like that!"
Sadly I can believe that there are assholes like this in the world and it saddens me.
I'm pretty sure someone with a fake leg will feel the kick, due to the fact that 'this thing' is attached to them... so that seems ridiculously retarded... and disrespectful... tho' it's not like You could expect reason or any type of 'high-end' culture from a moron... world is a harsh place, at least that helps value 'gems' :D
-Greetings
Lol
That's when you take your prosthetic leg and beat them over the head with it!!! "It's a fake leg so you shouldn't be able to feel this!!" LMAO
Dude, that is just fucked up. I mean if it was a 7 year old or something I get it, but if it was an adult they deserve to be punched or kicked back.
Moly, you are awesome! You don’t let things stop you, because your blind.
Thank you for showing the world!! I love your story❤️❤️!
Molly you are a super hero! Because you are giveing a voice that can't be heard.
Molly: “ So your like dare devil, right? “
Me: **GARRET. WATTS.**
SOO TRUEEEEEEE
Me: takes off glasses.
person: grabs glasses.
Person: how many fingers am I holding up.
Me: I'm not blind, I see just not very well.
Person: then how many fingers am I holding up.
Me: 2 duhh
Person:*** puts up a third finger*** no that's 3
Me:I'AM NOT BLIND, JUST BECAUSE I WEAR GLASSES IT DOESN'T MEAN I'M BLIND. OK.
Edit: Omg thx for the likes
IKR i’ve changed to contacts now but people used to do this to me or they would ask if they could try on my glasses. If I let them put them on they’re all like “it looks so weird” like yah, did you think I was just wearing them for fun?
I just grab their hand cause I can't see how many fingers there are, I do miss alot cause it's hard to judge distance when everything is a big blur.
This happens to me all the time.... and my number is like..-0.25. Bitch.. what?
Saame!
ANNABEL KALAJIAN OMG THIS HAPPENS TO MEE ALL THE TIMEEEEEE!!!!!
I used to work and live with a large group of people with various disabilities, and it was the most enlightening experience i've had. Honestly the take away i got from this video is the same moral I learned there. JUST TREAT OTHERS WITH DISABILITES AS YOU WOULD SOMEONE WITHOUT. Just because they are different, never means they require special social interaction. They are and always have been regular people.
Is it scary to read “Do not touch” in brail
I would never know these things if it weren’t for Molly. We love you girl!! 💕❤️💗
that`s the point of this
@@kirdot2011 yes, it is your point is......
You wouldn't know how to be a decent and respectful human without CZcams?
You guys don't have to hate on her for being nice to Molly.
I think Molly is a superhero, not Daredevil just Molly.
Super molly
Like her super hero name is "Just Molly"... I love it!
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I love you Molly! The last one was so funny! Great job!
I love that you are an advocate for the blind. Thank you for educating us. I am Autistic and I feel the same way as you. I love educating and breaking stereotypes about Autism.
I am deaf and I’ve had a hard time with adjusting to the way people treat me. A lot of people don’t know how hard it is for me to blend in. I have a cochlear and it is something that helps you hear. I had 3 failures and that is rare to happen. You are a big inspiration for me because of the way you took your disability and made it into something that is amazing. I always want to fit in and a lot of the times that does not happen and I have learned to live with that because of you. The main thing I think is so annoying that I also got a lot of attention for is my lip reading. I read lips really good and the reason for that is because when I was almost fully deaf I had to rely on people’s lips to “hear” them talk. Everybody always says “can you read my lips” and it get so annoying because I am now known as “the deaf girl” or “the girl who can read lips”. You get me through that everyday and I hope someday I could be someone amazing like you. I don’t know a lot of sign language but I do know a bit. You are good for somebody who doesn’t do sign language that often. You are so amazing♥️
Rachel Lawson you already are amazing
I'm deaf too, and I totally get your struggle. Keep advocating for yourself and eventually you will meet people that won't see you as "the deaf girl." Trust me. It may take a while, but you already clearly can read lips better than I can, so you're doing GREAT!!! ;)
(Also, THREE CI failures??? I can't even imagine, I've only had one and that was awful!)
Do you ever have trust issues with asking people like what color something is or what something looks like ?????
k sipes woah....
That is what worries me.
Ummm Molly you are a hero, you are out here educating people & making the world better 💙
i really wish we were friends lmfao i feel like she’s me in a different world. you’re so beautiful molly!!
Wearing glasses -
-take off ur glasses
How many fingers am I holding up?
-u look so much better without glasses
-u look so different without glasses
-can I wear ur glasses
-if you can see without glasses why do u have them?
TRUE!!
OH MY LORD YES! I always get these questions!
So true!
OMG SAME! oh and people also tell me I look weird without them too...
Oh my god I hate it when people say that I look better without glasses. I've had them for as long as I can remember and they've become a part of who I am. Being told I look better without them is ok I guess, but also mean because that's basically saying "oh you look very good without your glasses off than on". Idk, that's just how I see it
I hate the "you don't look" comments. I have MS and use a wheelchair, and people will say things like "you don't look disabled" or "your too young to be disabled" like wtf man
It's possible stuff like that is meant more as a compliment, but I think Molly mentions it in another vid, the last one aobut the dumb questions. She doesn't like how it kind of sounds accusatory, like the person is suspicious that she isn't really blind.
Same. It's hard not to slap people. Lol.
@iNiyama I know, I had rather them say "I'm so sorry" than make me feel the way I do when they say that crap. (also I have depression too, sucks ass, I get you hun)
Syndi Griner-Owens I get those comments all the time. Especially the your too young one. I take 15 different pill 2-4times a day to be able to live a normal life. And your trying to tell me I’m not disable just because I refuse to use a wheelchair in stores or long walks? Or because I’m not a certain age. Even the government doesn’t want to accept disabled people as disable. It heartbreaking!
Brent Hunter I wish it was a compliment. But doctors say the same stuff to people and wont believe them either.
People are idiots is all I learnt from this video. I would never ask a random blind/disabled person ANY of these. I have too bad anxiety and I'm not an IDIOT.
Actually not every blind character is portrayed negatively
Have u even heard of toph beifong?
I love Toph!!! She's literally my favorite character ever!!!
I love her too! my favourite non-real blind person
I love Toph, however, she does portray some stereotypes such is your eyes have to be a white/glazed over color.
@@Insert_User. but some are
Toph is such a great character and I'm so happy with how they portrayed her blindness
