What are you talking about pussy? I wanted to say much more in response to your first post but held back because I knew you would cry.


**** you for real though. You are a ****ing pussy. You are a ****ing bitch. This is all you have. Talking shit online. That's it.

Sad. Very sad existence you've got there.

Peers like him, but don't want to be close friends with him). He's the sweetest, most thoughtful kid in the world, and we're so thankful that part of his genetic abnormality seems to be that he's not overly self conscious about his difference (though his little brother, extremely social and popular, getting invited to play dates constantly bothers him). It's very likely he'll be somewhat dependent on us for the rest of our lives, but it's good to think that isn't a death sentence for my wife and I and may actually be a very pleasant, positive experience as we age.

Bravo to guys like you, Mosbonian, fan4ever, and Flopnuts.

I don't mean this in any sort of negative way, whatsoever, but I have to imagine it is pretty rough. You guys don't make it sound so bad.

I'm going to go with the "most people don't have an effing clue what it is like to live with a Special Needs child" explanation for many of the responses on here.

And making light of the situation shows, for the moment, you are showing a lack of class.

Not to talk about myself again, but I have a son who has severe Cerebral Palsy, and he can be very noisy. There are some things we won't do; take him to movies (although he loves them) or anything else in public that will be disruptive to others trying to enjoy an event. We DO have to be in public with him from time to time, like shopping, etc. and there I just think other people can just put up with it and I answer disgusted looks with a nasty glare but I don't confront people for the most part. That being said, if I had a neighbor who complained about him when we're on our own property, front yard, back yard whatever...I'd go apeshit all over them.

Once again....not in the same aspect of what you're going through....but my 6 year old daughter has to get 24 hour EEGs 3 or 4 times a year to measure her brain activity. So for 24 hours...she has to wear electrodes on her head...and her head is then wrapped up so she doesn't mess with them. All of the electrodes are attached to wires that run down to a backpack that she has to wear. Everytime that my daughter gets one done....my wife takes her out for lunch and to pick out a small toy.

People are ****ing crazy. One of our friends has two young sons with longish hair (not like shoulder length... just typical longish hair for young kids). Some guy, randomly, walked up to her at a restaurant and said, "Are those boys or girls?" She replied, "Boys" and he replied, "I'd never let my sons have hair like that."

WTF? I mean.. WTF? Seriously.

Wow. Was it an old bitty? Some older people tend to think kids like ours should be kept at home or even institutionalized. I guess it's how things were handled way back when. My own mother insinuated that once and I told her if she ever wanted Lisa (my wife who she loved) to ever speak to her again, she'd better never say something that again. My wife also got the treatment your wife received years ago when my son was still a baby and had a feeding tube running up his nose...again, old broad...a cashier. My wife had to stand in front of the door to keep me from heading back down to the Walgreens where this old fart worked.
