This is because in 1930 it was commonly said that anyone that was disabled should not be able to have any children. However, if they did have any children, then some sort of sterilization should be done, which is horribly awful and the way Ableism was presented in 1930 was very insensitive. ]]> 2021-12-13 01:03:54 UTC https://padlet.com/2413207_1/f13ombm3niby9s5c/wish/1943408976 2413207_1 https://padlet.com/2413207_1/f13ombm3niby9s5c/wish/1943410489 2021-12-13 01:05:11 UTC https://padlet.com/2413207_1/f13ombm3niby9s5c/wish/1943410489 Medical treatment for mental illness in the 1930s: 2413207_1 https://padlet.com/2413207_1/f13ombm3niby9s5c/wish/1943447175 In the 1930s, there were medical treatments for mental illness.
