[QUOTE=CanYouDigIt]If I had an annoying autistic kid outside my home making shit loads of noise, I'd be pissed. Instead of writing a letter, I'd talk to the mother and tell her to control where you let your child play and the noise he makes before I file a complaint.[/QUOTE]
These type of people make a damn good reason why Aliens won't talk to us.
All I gotta say is, put yourself in his shoes, then we'll see.
[QUOTE=Dionysus]This isn't just a ME problem, It's a problem for children trying to play outside. Mentally I'll kids are like old drunks or Schizophrenia patients. Imagine a old drunk standing outside while your're cooking out with family and friends and he's yelling explicitives at the top of his lungs acting like an ape? Everyone will be looking at him, no one would want to approach him or hang out with him, and everyone would talk about him being crazy within their group.
He'll be that guy that 2 people walk by and 1 of them whispers "don't walk to close, that guys a nut job". THIS is how normal children would look at a mentally ill kid. I'am not condemning the mentally impaired kid, I'm just merely stating truth as it pertain's to society.[/QUOTE]
You just need a good dick up your ass. Don't worry, it'll come ... time will tell.
Generally, I don't get involved in threads once they get this long, in large part because there's really only so many opinions one can have on any particular topic, and you hit about five pages, and you've pretty much seen them all.
But in this case, A) I felt compelled to comment, and B) I didn't read everything because it devolved into pretty heavy trolling pretty quick.
In the third post in here, Guy points out that he believes this was the work of some immature kids. Basically saying he doesn't believe an adult can be this immature. I tend to agree with him. Not that adults aren't disgusting, and wouldn't be capable of thinking this, but saying it, particularly in the manner in which it's expressed, is a little tough for me to believe. The grammatical mistakes, along with the tone of the letter, all the extra punctuation and the such, just feels like some punk middle school kids. And the concerns within the letter are sort of centered around kids.
Secondly, this letter claims to be written by a mother of multiple kids. Now I'm of the age that where I have many friends who are mothers. I coach youth sports. I know a lot of moms. I know a lot of good ones, and I know a lot of terrible ones. But I don't know a single mother who would say this to another mother about their kid. Not one.
None of that excuses what was said, or makes up for how hurt I'm sure the recipient was. But if they do find out who what I'm guessing are kids are, I would think a harsh punishment to maybe learn them something is more in order than if it were in fact a grownup, in which case I'm not sure what I would do. Kids are mean and without sense for most of their kiddness. I know I was. We make fun of fat kids, and dumb kids, and poor kids, and ugly kids. It's part of the poor self esteem issue kids have, and the hope is somewhere they feel bad about it, and grow out of it and not turn into assholes as adults.
Also, I've dealt with a few special ed kids over the years. My college was a host for the special olympics and jr. special olympics for years, and I volunteered there. I worked at a summer daycare for my local YMCA, and got to see the occasional challenged kid mixed in with the rest of the community, and it wasn't the best of the daycares, so we weren't getting the best kids. It was frustrating as hell, but you do the best you can, and you teach the kids as best you can, from both ends. I remember having a challenged kid who went through a spate of exposing himself in the locker room getting ready for the pool. It wasn't comfortable, but you discipline him, and then try to explain to the rest of the kids why it's not fair to hold a grudge for something that obviously bothered them. And coaching basketball and football, I've come across more than a few other lesser issues. ADD. Turrets. People are different for all sorts of reasons. It's part of life, and you have to learn to deal with it. And we have to teach our kids to deal with it.
[QUOTE=dude77]dionysus is 100% right .. I'm sure the problem everyone's having more so than anything is her tone in that letter .. it was a little over the top and nasty .. but it was accurate .. I don't wanna have to be hearing or seeing anyone walking around acting like that kid in the ^^video in my neighborhood or someone walking around yelling and cursing .. people talk about being considerate to the kid's feelings .. but you also have to be considerate of everyone else's[/QUOTE]
Finally someone with a brain post.:applause:
My point exactly. I also don't agree with how the mother went about the letter completely, but she has a right to be worried for normal children's sakes.
I also like how the ISH pulls one big wanking circle and label me a troll because my opinion isn't politically correct. My opinion is actually what goes on in most folks mind.

No it doesn't dumbsh*t.
The majority of the people don't want to euthanize a handicapped kid just because he finds him "scary." You're just a sick heartless f*ck.

Another brainless emotional idiot posting. Where did I say they should be "euthanized"? Seperated from normal kids? Yes. But I never said put them to sleep.

1. A letter was posted.
2. In the letter, the mother specifically said the child should be euthanized.
3. In the 12 post of this thread, you said, [B]"These are things we think about in our head without saying it outloud.[/B]

At which point is a kid not "normal" anymore according to your standards?
[QUOTE=dr.hee]At which point is a kid not "normal" anymore according to your standards?[/QUOTE]
Not normal:
Needing special classes
Also, see the kid in the video I posted.
I'm not seeing what you don't understand.

Re-read the thread please. I covered my main points to what I agreed with. Not the point of euthanizing.

What about a kid with severe physical handicap?

Which was 0.00001% of the letter.
Still a dumbf*ck and nothing more than a troll. Who wouldn't agree with you if you were to say, "Something should be done about loud noises in the neighborhood?"
You're just pulling sh*t out of your a*s with nothing to say.
