Is it proper to keep telling a person they should get an electric wheelchair?

Question by catgrl: Is it proper to keep telling a person they should get an electric wheelchair?
Some people act like it is such a chore to push me in the manual chair so they want me to get an electric one. I know it is difficult, but some like pushing me, despite the hard work, so I don't think I need one. I also have problems keeping my balance in those when they stop.

It is fair enough for you to think about the issue selfishly - it is mainly you it affects, so you should decide what kind of wheelchair to have. However, as well as taking into account your physical comfort, I guess you should take into account how it affects your relationship with other people: making others happy ultimately benefits you.

Anyway, to answer your question, I don't think what is 'proper' comes into it. You have to deal with people as they are.
