do you know I can't be fucking bothered anymore

[2shoes]

I have had it with this crap.
I am fed up with threads on mn that seem to say that being disbaled makes you less of a person.
I have seen 2 today. I can't be fucked with trying to "educate" people anymore.

I'm sorry you are having to deal with these narrow minded people. I think of your DD as a girly girl who likes trendy tops and makes semi -rude comments at the end of boring meetings with her communication aid.

Where?
They must be nutters.

2shoes don't upset yourself. I find that some people don't want to be educated they would prefer to stay in their own ignorant world. I usually ignore those threads.

Bluddy nutters, at that.

Your two are magic, your DS and DD.

That's what counts.

I know what you mean 2shoes. Its the 'oh, I know its not PC to say this but...' that really gets me. Its not f-ing acceptable AT ALL and people get all defensive when you challenge them. If they were making racist comments there is NO WAY they would be allowed to tiptoe around the issues.

moondog - an unpleasant comment about people
who "sit and dribble" on the abortion thread.

shells - yeah that comment "the it's not PC" one was precisely the bit of the post that pissed me off - the assumptions it's something everyone feels.

I am just so fucked of by it. my dd is beautiful and has not a mean bone in her body. yet theses dipsticks continue to see disabled people as less than worthy.

2shoes, I'm just having a great time looking at your profile. Gee you've got a lot of kids...

oh 2shoes

they are idiots, not much help to say that, but they are

He's a love x

Oh 2shoes - don't let their ignorance grind you down

You know, your DD will always be a wonderful person - these people will always be ignorant tossers - which would you rather have in your family!

Quite right soapbox. Their anxiety about 'perfect' children is just so hateful. You wouldn't ever want to know people like that in RL.

The odd thing is I have 2 dc's
dd has cp and ds is "normal"
yet who is the one who has had countless operations. won't eat their veg and gives me greif........go on guess

ds the "perfect child.

amen soapbox.

2shoes they are not worthy of your anger, really they're not. But I do also know how hard it is not to rise to it and tell them all to fuck off.

you know, sometimes i think, 'maybe i was chosen to have a child with SN'.

because i for one don't think it's any of my damn business to decide whose life is worth living, least of all my child's.

and if SN is the worst thing in someone's world, well, i hope they realise how lucky they are.

My kids can't do much about their special needs, but I'd be right on their cases if either of them showed any sign of growing up as downright insinsitive and ignorant as some people seem to take a pride in being.

Cheezy Internet Hugz.

I don't know what to say, I really don't. There is no excuse for these sort of attitudes .

I've added a thought or two, too.
