My View
The world will continue to struggle correcting this issue of dwarfism misrepresentation. Entertainment business will continue to bloom from their mass production of misguided movies. Viewers will be laughing and would probably not realize what little people are going through in their big world. In addition there are third party such as parents who would rather mock little people rather than explaining the situation they are in. Misrepresentation of little people is hurting not only the little people but also the society. The society creates this perception of their disability such that they are discriminated base on their physical appearance. The society miss the idea that they are human too and their disability is not related to any mental problem. Little people can still think critically and therefore perform their necessary tasks just like normal people. Their intelligence can complementarily compare to that of a normal person. Most of this misrepresentation goes back to the media and the entertainment industry portrayal of little people. The same caused for their tainted profile can as well help decrease the spread of misguided representation. The media and the entertainment should continue to reach out viewers by illustrating scenes that makes viewers not necessarily pity them, rather give them the respect they deserve and eliminate further damage to their dignity.
