Disability discrimination act

Okay kiddo, let's talk about the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA).

The DDA is a law in some countries that helps protect people with disabilities from being treated unfairly or differently because of their disability. It's like a superhero that fights against discrimination!

Imagine you have a friend who uses a wheelchair to get around. If a store or restaurant doesn't have a ramp for your friend to enter, that's unfair and it's called discrimination. The DDA makes sure places like that have to make changes to be accessible to people with disabilities.

The DDA also says that people with disabilities should have the same rights and opportunities as everyone else. For example, if a person with a disability applies for a job, the employer cannot discriminate against them because of their disability. That's fair, right?

Overall, the DDA helps people with disabilities to be included and treated fairly in society. It's an important law that protects their rights and makes the world a better and more equal place for everyone.
