Should My Wordless Kid Go to School with Your Normal Child?
Of course, I remember the days when you didn’t want your kid near a bunch of “hooting, feral retards” yourself, Mr. R-H. Yes, I know you’ve moved past that, but apologizing might have been nice.
I found the entry you are referring to, Emily.
No, I was not in fact stating my feelings about my own child in any class. To be accurate, I was writing sarcastically, theoretically quoting a theoretical statement by the theoretical parent of a theoretical neurotypical child when given the opportunity to have their child “mentor” a special needs student, in the very class that my own child attended, which would make her one of those “retards”. (“Surround my impressionable child with hooting, feral retarded kids? Go for it!”) Which is sort of ironic, being called to task on a statement taken out of context that might very well have been made without a trace of sarcasm by any number of the folks who have posted on here.
If the only way you can make your point about me is to take a phrase from an old entry and quote it out of context so that it says the exact opposite of what was intended, well, I’d say your point must have been exceptionally poor to begin with.
I don’t normally respond to personal remarks like that, and I’m already regretting doing so today, but emily’s remark was obnoxious and morally bankrupt. Anyone else who wants a response from me can solicit it via email.
