In the past, most people have treated the handicapped people, like the blind and the deaf, unfairly. Some saw them as bad omens or cursed by gods. Treatment of the handicapped people started to change in the 18th and 19th centuries when the social systems were created. Soon after, special education was given to handicapped children.
