Students with physical disabilities are often intimidated and teased by other students. Usually normal students do not play or talk with them, they are left out alone. In most cases these students are called by humiliating names due to which they become victim of self pity. Sometimes such students are kicked and hit or frightened by other students too. They become scared to go to school. Sometimes due to depression they stop to eat or sleep properly. In extreme cases, these students lose all hopes to live. Most often students with physical disabilities, lose all their confidence. They become too weak to sustain peer pressure. If proper guidance is not provided to them at early stages, they start to face psychological problems too. All the hatred which, they have received from society, gradually start exhibiting in their behavior. They start trying to hide their flair. They become rude and arrogant. Sometimes these students start to irritate their parents and teachers too.

We can save such students from becoming victim of such psychological problems, by adopting certain strategies. Firstly teachers should teach students with physical disabilities primary self help skills. Teachers should take the help of latest technology to promote a feeling of independence in them. For example such students should be provided with a slant board for placing reading material on it, pencil grip for having firm grip on pen or pencil, a tape recorder for catching up lectures etc. With little technical aid, these students can independently have a brilliant academic career. Second step is to protect these students’ from ruthless social behaviors until they are not strong enough to face it. For this teacher should be so alert that no child can tease or bully other. Teachers should counsel other students to be nice and friendly with students with physical disabilities. On the other hand teachers and parents should mentally prepare gifted students how to react if someone teases them. Teachers and parents should give so much confidence to such students that they can easily ignore humiliating social behaviors. Teachers and parents should be extremely friendly and motivating with such students so that they can easily share their problems with them. For relaxation teachers should divert attention of such students towards indoor games rather than outdoor. Healthy competition should be arranged so that such students can easily portray their talent.

With little efforts and wise usage of technology we can help students with physical disabilities to achieve academic success.
