If blind communities are like some deaf communities, they may have a strong separatist bent which does indeed allow their child to avoid integrating with the rest of the world if they so choose. This is an option.
The blind communities I'm involved in don't have any such separatist bent that I'm aware of. If anything, perhaps we go too far in insisting on assimilating into the mainstream.
