There a tons of people, some smart and some not. Some of these people can not help it though, people like Charlie. Charlie's definition of "smart" and most people's definition of smart are different. I think Charlie's definition of smart just means a normal person without a disability. He want to be smart, or not have disabilities, so he will have lots of friends, and no problems. The truth is, "smart" people have lots of challenges as well. Not all "smart" people have tons of friends, either. A lot of "Smart" people mostly get bullied, which means, that they may not have a lot of friends. They also have everyday challenges, with work, school, friends, or family. I don't think charlies realized that even "smart: people's lives are not perfect. We do think though, that people with disabilities like Charlie's do not have as many friends as normal people, and have most everyday challenges too, more than "smart" people. Most people don't like being around people with disabilities because it make them uncomfortable. People with disabilities also run into more problems because they may not know how to deal with them. That is why Charlie want to be, as he calls it, "smart."
