society’s expectations

Paragraph of society’s expectations of behavior toward the disadvantaged

      With the development of social economy, the issues of society’s expectations of behavior toward the disadvantaged have become increasingly prominent. In the past time, they are treated with unfair ways and discriminated by others. Because of philanthropy, societal expectations about the disadvantaged should advocate protection, equality, and helpfulness. First, people need to protect the the basic rights of disadvantaged. The most useful ways is policy. Laws and rules need to be setted up for the disadvantaged which can help them avoid getting physical and psychological injured. On the other hand, people also need to have a equal treatment to disadvantaged groups. Laws and rules should punish the people who is malevolent to the disadvantaged. In order to be more effective,  people need be educated with positive concept instead of  antiquated concept which is callous. In addition, they also should be given equal social rights in many areas such as finding jobs and getting salaries. Sometimes, they need more opportunities than others because they are always unconcerned. Moreover, people need be  more helpful for the disadvantaged. Disadvantaged groups are poor, lack of education, no background and even have physical or mental problems. People need to give them more care and help to make them work and live well. Problems related to the disadvantaged groups cannot be solved overnight, but it is concerned that under the joint effort of the government and the community, basic rights of the disadvantaged groups can be ensured. A harmonious society is definitely to be achieved in the future.

Societal expectations to the disadvantaged

     Societal expectations always have unprecedented impact to everyone, especially to the disadvantaged.  The reason why we have to be influenced by the societal expectations is that we care so much about others’ thinking of us.  To the normal people, the societal expectations are that they should do something benefits the society, their family or their own.  On the other hand, to the disadvantaged, because of their observantly intuition, societal expectations always impact more on them.  Most people are not callous and they think even though the disadvantaged cannot do a lot benefits to the society, we still need to help them.  In my opinion, society’s expectations of behavior toward the disadvantaged should be based on three aspects.  First, society’s expectations should be based on respect.  Most of the disadvantaged feel themselves inferior, if they can feel the respect from the public, it can help them build self-confidence.  For example, the disabled can do all work they can do in Canada.  It is a good way to make the disadvantaged benefit to the society and build their self-confidence.  Second, people should be tolerant on the behaviors of the disadvantaged.  For example, when some old people do things very slowly, we should be patient; when some patients who have mental problems do something strange, we should also be tolerant.  Third, the public should do their best to help them.  Sometimes, if we can help the disadvantaged, they can also help the society too.  Though most of the disadvantaged cannot do great many for the society, we still need to help them because we don’t want to be ignored when someday we become one of the disadvantaged.  In Canada, the government has already done a lot.  For example, the buses have the wheel chair area for the disabled; the disabled have special parking zone; all the public building have automatic door to make the disabled and the elder people convenient.  How the public treat the disadvantaged can reflect the society’s ethical concept.
