sorry got to post in here before I loose my temper

[2shoescoveredinhearts]

as I as I have posted in the past ds was badly bullied a few years ago, and we have been the target of a hate crime.......what word is often used, yes the spaz word...

yet there they are on here saying oh it is ok it is normal for your lovely child to use that word...........WTF

That is disgusting. I hate that word and parents etc that think its ok for their children to use this word. One of the comps we looked at for my DS1 has a special needs room which is commonly known amongst pupils as the 'spaz room' - horrible and one of the reasons why DS1 won't be going there..

IT is not OK it is disgusting

we are all wrong
it is "normal" for kids to say it

Is it on a thread on here?

I hate that word. Its an awful word. And it's not ok to use it.

i know, and it doesn't hurt anyone.............................

strange how they get all upset if thier dc is called stupid/silly/daft yet don't mind this..

and they look down on our kids, makes you laugh

People who think it's ok for their kids to use those words are not parents, they're just childminding the next generation of hooligans. I told that to a mum once, it did not do down well but I didn't give a fuck. Bet they wouldn't be "brave" enough to use racist words, cos of course their kids would get into serious trouble for that, whereas our kids quite literally can't answer or fight back. I noted that one of the posters on a thread arguing that we've all gone PC-mad and we should be able to call people what we like, later posted on a different thread that her child was being assessed for autism. Wonder if she will change her mind about this topic, when and if she gets a diagnosis.

riven that is good

It's never acceptable to use the aforementioned word-or any other word that's derogatory towards people with disabilities, or other "differences". Why do some people just not catch on? (Or, perhaps, they do catch on, but secretly enjoy being hateful?)

do we take it too far though?
yes some words are unaceptable, but do you think by including so many like stupid and idiot, we loose sympathy?

Where is this thread?

that would have me screaming to , and woah if my nt Dc used it

This thread MiladyDeWinter horrid word, ranks up there with stupid in our house growing up with several children with SN.

oh good, I have always used them
brainstorm and fit don't bother dh either....
but epi? yet people say "oh but we didn't know" and they call our kids thick!!!!

I rather obviously prefer wanker...

but riven
what about fit young men?

see to me lush means drunk.....
but the fit young man can be drunk too

I found this thread late last night, left a message on there and brooded over people thinking it is fine for their dc's to use words like that. AAARRRRGGHH!!
