Are you really open minded and accepting of others?
To go back tho the OP.
Are you really open minded and accepting of others?
I think I am. This premise that one should forgive those children with diagnosed disorders whilst villifying naughty kids is a case in point. I strongly believe that people of whatever age are very complex and compassion and understnading rather than hatred and dismissal are important in resolving the issues. (Cue the bleeding heart lefty liberal fall out for that one.)
With newpapers and television obsessed with villifying individuals and groups in societies it really is no surprise. But then you have to bear in mind that these mediums pander to the popular view and i suppose its fairly easy to venture that human beings take great delight in looking down in horror at other human beings. Fairly primitive behaviour that our chickens exhibit should one of them show any sign of weakness. They are a little more extreme and peck it to death.
I think human beings, most of whom have greater powers of reasoning than the average chicken should strive to overcome such tendencies. I try and often fail. Thats the best I can manage.

When I got home tonight there is a lovely family that lives just around the corner,ya know the sort coppers always knocking at their door etc. Well I got out of my car and crossed the road and this lovely little girl of about ten who lives there gave me the most dirtiest of looks. When I dared to stare back at her in amazement she spat " what you fucking looking at "?
Now what catagory should I place her in?

Turrets syndrome maybe??? lol
It would seem that my initial comment regarding my son who has Autism has caused quite a debate!!
If this discussion has made just one person take a step back and think before judging the naughty child in the supermarket, park, etc then I feel that my job is done.... Many bricks have to be laid in order to build a wall.
I never judged people prior to having my son as I have been priviledged enough to know many children with various disabilites (many are sadly no longer with us) as my brother had a physical disability.
I can however see how people can confuse children with behavioural problems as naughty kids but I will not apologise for him or their ignorance. I do not feel the need to print T-shirts or cards.
I feel that the following statement works well:
"If I could cure my sons Autism for his benefit and the benefit of my other children then I would not hesitate to do so but for the benefit of the ignorant people in this world, he is perfect just the way he is"
This does not fail to produce a 'squirm' and knowing that just one of the ignorant people in the world will think twice before judging in the future is enough for me!!
Thank you all for your support and kind words

I wonder what she would have said to you? Probably the same as I would say to you. I used to think you was rather funny, now I think your just a ...... wink
You are abviously from the same stable as that other idiot I have to put up with....cyber space...great ain't it? :wink:
The child that was so rude to Kenty doesn't sound like a child with a learning disability. I would wager that the biggest disadvantage that kid has are her stupid chav parents.

well obviously seeing as powers finds something like that so funny, maybe he would find it funny if one of his kids said the same thing to someone? Makes you wonder.

You got the cheek to call me a piece of work?
Your thoughts and your words mean about as much to me as a empty tin of beans John.
I enjoy this site too much to get into a slanging match with you.
You have a good day now ya hear. :P
I see the thread killers have struck again.
well done. It's not like anyone on here actually wants a discussion - slanging matches are so much more popular - NOT.

The thread WAS being discussed and a good debate it was. Now you go back to where it all went wrong here.
No doubt I will get the blame, there ya go thats what happens when you have strong opinions, you upset people and then they spend their entire time on here waiting to bait. :arrow:
If anyone has anything constructive to add please PM me, but for the time being I'm locking this.
