The problem is, I don't smile to people I don't know. I've sometimes smiled to babies, but then afterwards I think "Why did I do that?". If I started smiling and waving to disabled people, that would be me treating them differently than I do other people. I think that's the last thing disabled people want.

It's your innate social humanity peeking out. Don't smother it.
