i have not once put another blog on my post because i am angry at what is happening to the individual who wrote it.
there is a first for everything.
this is such an important read to understand what we have been trying to say about our children with mental disabilities who are considered ‘mentally retarded’ in their progress in life.
this whole population of people, yes people just like you the reader, are not given the same rights as the ‘normal’ population.
it has to stop. this is not the first time i have felt helpless rage and uselessness, i have written about this before in our own personal experience here.
our experience is not the same as this family’s, their’s is a real fight for life or death.
if you ask me, this woman showed an amazing amount of self-restraint in the conference room, i would have resorted to some sort of physical retaliation to hear my child was not ‘normal’ enough for them to deem her worthy to live.
please read this article.
