134. The ones calling you and your beautiful daughter this word are truly the ...

scumbags in this scenario.

Every family and every clic group has its share of valued family members and friends who are challenged in some manner and to be honest w/ you, I think that they bring so much to the table, with their outlook on life, and magnificent viewpoints on the small things in life that the rest of us overlook (you know how life is, busy busy busy).

When I was young, I was profoundly hard of hearing (and they didn't know it at first what was wrong), so I was in a special school until I was 9 years old (my Mom insisted to the doctors that it seemed to be a hearing problem but they ignored her). Not until did I have a incident on the swing set (I got pushed off, broke my shoulder as a result) did I finally get a hearing test (at 9 years old)!

Once I was fitted w/ a hearing aid, my world changed. I was one of the lucky ones in that they found something wrong w/ me that could be fixed or rectified so easily. I know that in most cases, things can't be rectified so easily, a lot of my fellow classmates I went to school w/ back then were in this category, but I never imagined them to 'retarded'...never imagined it or even knew what the word meant at first. I still think of my fellow classmates so long ago in that special school, and everyone of them still has a special place in my heart. To me, they were my friends, and I theirs. I never knew that anything was amiss (and it wasn't).

I too was called a 'retard' back then (until I was 9 years old), I didn't understand the word back then (and I am guessing your beautiful daughter doesn't know what word means either).

To all of those using such a hateful word and reveling in it should be ashamed of themselves. If I were their mother, I would box their ears. This is pathetic and shameful behavior. We were all raised to be better than this and there's no excuse for such behavior other than just being a d**khead.

To this day, I laugh and mock at anyone that ever uses this word in a hateful manner. It's pathetic on their part and also they really don't know the true meaning of the word. They and the CC are the retards in this scenario, and you and your daughter are the true heroes in this story to me, for standing up for your beliefs, for standing up for your daughter, and for up against such ignorant hate.

Peace to your daughter, your wife, and you
