After it happened I was feeling real good about what I had done when I caught up to my wife and kids. My son....my Special Needs son mind you....looked at me and said "Dad, why did you do that? It's not his fault he doesn't understand. How are you going to make him understand better when all you did was yell at him"
Talk about a reality check....my wife looked at me and smiled....and all I could think to do was find the guy to apologize. My son and I purposely stood at the Exit to the ride so we could meet him and I could apologize to him and his family. When he approached he was a bit sheepish but my son stuck his big paw out and introduced himself...for that moment I felt like the Child and he was the Parent.
Your children teach you so much....

Your son sounds well equipped for the world, and you, your wife, and family deserve an immense amount of the credit for that. Congratulations.
