Okay folks - I am aware that I may be opening a can of worms here but why does this topic piss so many people off?

I mean if someone has deemed a child G+T (or is it G or T) why is it that they seem to be flamed when they post about any difficulties here?

If the label has come from outside the family and the family struggle why can't they post here saying "Help" without people leaping in to say "your child sounds normal to me"

For what it's worth I don't have a child labelled as G+T but am glad I don't given the response some posters get to this topic.

Surely it's okay for some children to be extra bright. Or is it that there is distrust of this label?

Just interested really.

well I have been in here since oct 2005, but I have recently changed my name. I stand by what I said, as I have often read km posts and what I say is true she rarely mentions her ds2 in a positive light.

Mhamai · 15/09/2007 22:35

kerry don't for a minute feel you need to justify how often your kids play, Jesus the nerve of some people!

Oh lojo, go talk to someone who actually gives a flying fuck! I'm sure I've come on here days when I've said I feel like I'm going to strangle my ds. It does not actually mean I am going to be done for murder. Get my drift? Probably not.

Still here Desi, you can't get rid of me that easily. I was away making sure my ds wheelchair cushion was dry, I'm taking the kids to the funfair tomorrow, 'cause life is not all about school.
