As some of you may have seen, there are some threads on the community board about helicopters, snowflakes and the like. One woman complained that as a special ed teacher, she had seen tons of helicopters, etc. A group of posters, myself included, wrote rebuttals to her posts.
On another similar thread a poster vented about how schools reward mediocrity and parents use their child's disability as an excuse.
Then there are the threads complaining about little league coaches, etc. They should be grateful that their children are healthy enough to participate in these activities.
I'm so frustrated. There are threads I enjoy reading on the other boards but I can't handle the negative comments about people with disabilities anymore. Reading some of those posts just brought back so many unhappy memories of all the things that my DS has gone through.
