can not judge a person who you do not know personally so can not say i like or dislike her am indiffernt but that article and feelings and what is said I do like

knobby

We are not talking about her life brand Kp .We are talking about a letter something that rasies public perception not matter what

Where are the other bleeding heart support a pretty cause group , do they talk about it .No

Respect to silverfrog

It must be very difficult not to slap the face of people making such ignorant comments! We have been thinking about becoming foster carers, and have been shocked by the comments of well educated, apparently mild mannered ex friends

People with disabilities are seen as second class citizens by some, I had never really realised this.

Won't be watching programme, as can't stand kp but I do think fb should apologise for the offence he has caused (even though he won't really be sorry )

Silverfrog

is better than me .I have blown my top if anyone made coments about my dc and then parked my power chair on them

Mummytiger. So if someone was to say to you "your son is going to attempt to rape you, lucky you have your husband to fight him off" would that be similarly hilarious?

I've said before, I don't mind sticking my head above the parapet if it'll lead to less ignorance and bile against families with disabled children. I'm not of interest to the media though.

I've had vile comments about me and my children, both on here and in RL. I honestly believe some people forget my children are human beings sometimes.

I don't care if she wrote the article or not. Or if she's publicity seeking. She's communicating something as articulately and movingly as she can (whether it involves using a ghost writer or not) that might bring about less hatred/ignorance of disability. Maybe that's not her aim but if that's a side product of the show, that's good enough for me.

FB is, sometimes, funny. On that occasion, he very definitely was not.

DS2's disability will, I'm sure, be the butt of some fucking hilarious jokes over the course of his life. In fact, some people have already felt it's OK to have a little quip at his expense. I'm not strong enough at the moment to challenge them, and know that if I started to, I'd lose it to the extreme and that's not something I want to show my children. One day though I will master myself and be able to do it in a dignified way. Maybe I'll get a ghost writer to help.

why would any one find that funny glitter, you havent even attempted to word it as a "joke"? glad you feel you can throw yourself to the wolves.

becuase Fb joke was not worded as a joke certainly not to his mum.it was nasty and offensive

That was the joke though Angel

you forgot the ' ' around the word joke, Mario

I agree that someone else wrote the article, noway are they her words, but yes the feelings are hers. I don't like the lady, but take my hat off to her, nobody knows how its like caring for a child who has severe SN, I have the utmost respect for her in that respect and no doubt she loves her children very much.

The boy has become a target BECAUSE OF BRAND KP shoving herself and her poor kids in the public eye. They had no choice about having their every move filmed. She did it because she is an attention hungry self serving reprehensible excuse for a mother

So we're blaming the person on the receiving end rather than the person who was actually responsible. Sensible

And nothing takes away the fact that her "career" is flagging, and this joke, which I make no defence of, (IT WAS HORRIFIC and extremely offensive to ANYONE) was done a long long time ago. Just seems to me she is digging it all up again for her own ends, at a time when she has been embarrassed "professionally"

knobbys so that exscuses Fb then so he can go call any child in the public eye names ?

So it's her fault that he is an unfunny, ignorant fuckwit? Oh that's ok then, that excuses him. If it wasn't her it would have been someone else. But that's ok because it's their fault. So anyone can say what they like publicly as long as the perceived victim is not to your liking. Fine and dandy.

No. It doesn't. That's a very obtuse way of looking at what I have said. I make no excuse for the disgusting things he said. I find her AS disgusting and am astonished that anyone sees her as a role model. The boy is an innocent, and was targeted to get to her. It was indefensible. It's not his fault who and what his mother is, and attacking someone because of a disability is just WRONG. It doesn't stop me from thinking SHE is wrong for using this as a platform for her own ends. It happened a long time ago and is being dug up because it suits her and her attention seeing ways.

maybe it does suit her but least people are talking about it and how disability hate crime is ignored and thats a good thing

You pretty much said that she'd brought it on herself. Like I said, he would and probably has found another target. He is the problem, not her.

So if her career is flagging and she's so desperate as to use Harvey as a way to get herself back in the spotlight, it won't work for long, will it? But if, as a result of the programme even a few people realise something about his condition and about how vile and hurtful that 'joke' was, that's going to have a lasting effect on how they treat and think about the people with disabilities they meet in their lives. And, overall, surely that's for the greater good.

And as for attention seeking at any cost... FB is also culpable, no?

FB will be loving this, and no doubt will have more comments to make on the latest events.
Just look at the controversy on here alone, she is the last person to be championing mothers who face the difficult task of discovering their DC has a disability, and the ensuing battle in bringing up a child with SN.
She is rarely the one there dealing with it.
And she is such an odious character that she will fail to reach as many people as a normal struggling parent.

Just cannot understand how anyone could believe KP could write, think or even articulate a sensitive thought about anyone or anything. The woman is contemptible and her antics play straight into the hands of those who think of women as purely puerile and obsessed with the crap end of culture. As someone else stated she is just the kind of person Boyle's humour is appreciated by, she just couldn't let the chance of a bit of publicity pass by - that is why she reacted to him.

But no one will listern or watch or be intrested in any of us .So we can not even begine to open discussions to a wider audience and jusy maybe some people may learn a thing or two by watching it so i am with missBetsy

Well I certainly don't have camera crews beating down my front door. I can understand why you find her unappealing, knobby (although you seem to feel very strongly about her!) but her name will reach more ears and her face more eyes than mine. A poster girl for disability rights? Maybe not. But it's something, at least.
