A few days ago, I was walking down the street when I met a group of students in uniforms. I was shocked to see that the girls’ skirts were very short and they were wearing a lot of make-up. The boys looked very untidy. Their shirts were dirty and some of them even had their shirt fronts open. I noticed that some of the students had their ears and noses pierced, which should not be allowed at school.

And the other day, I was on the subway when I saw some boys wearing uniforms of the same local school. Instead of sitting quietly, these boys kept making noises and saying dirty words. All the other passengers were looking at them and wondering how it was possible for students like these boys. They were really showing a bad image (形象)of their school, which was shameful.

I am a mother of two teenagers of the same school. After seeing those boys and girls, I am worried if my children also behave like this. I don’t know about it. Do students in this school know what is allowed when they are wearing the school uniforms ? I think the school should be stricter with the students. And I think all the students should be taught how to be polite.

Katrina L. is like any other girl today: she talks on the phone, deals with schoolwork, and has some friends. Unlike other girls, however, Katrina takes medicine every morning.

Katrina has spina bifida(脊柱裂). She has had eight operations and wears braces on her legs to keep them in the proper places. Though anguished because of her illness, she's outgoing and confident.

The 14-year-old attends high school and is not in any special classes. She is allowed more time to get to school when she needs it. However, she always manages to be on time.

Katrina has had the support of her parents as well. I think that, growing up with a disability, the best thing I have had is supportive parents. They both have always said that I can do something if I really want to.",

After school on most days, Katrina works at Able-Disabled Advocacy (A-DA), an organization that helps the disabled, with her mother, Cindy. On other days, she plays wheelchair basketball and tennis. Her evenings are spent at A-DA and doing schoolwork.

Katrina feels that her disability has allowed her to do things she might not have been able to do. She says that she would not have played sports at all if it was not for wheelchair sports, and that she would not have some other friendships. Rock climbing, cycling, and downhill racing are some of the other activities she is able to take part in. Katrina also volunteers at a community centre, helping other kids with disabilities.

The future of most people with spina bifida is excellent, and Katrina is thinking about hers. “I want to be a doctor of some kind," she says, "though I'm not sure what kind yet.”
