Stigma and Disability. Conventionally, social psychologists have viewed stigma as negative attitude from the perspective of dominant groups. An insider perspective makes a departure from this conventional approach and reveals that stigma is a range of experience of stigmatized groups. This paper shows that children with the problem of lazy eyes do not develop the feeling of stigma unless others point out the problem to them. The paper further argues that people with disability stigma always do not respond with aggressive behavior. For aggressive behavior is a response to situations rather than to individuals.
