TOO MANY "ISMS" NOT ENUF CHILDREN!
I have been hearing a commercial on the radio that states that 1 out of every 166 children will be diagnosed with some form of autism.
BULL.
Of course, for every ill-behaved child that was almost assuredly ill conceived their exists some sort of ism to excuse the parents from parenting and making their children behave. No one has to even try to raise their kids anymore all they have to do is diagnose them and absolve everyone from any blame whatsoever.
The "Living" section of the Champaign News-Gazette ran an article on a family whose daughter suffers from "mutism". She refuses to speak to anyone but her family and a few "talking" friends because she is incredibly shy.
The parents are afraid their daughter will be seen as "dumb" because of her shyness. No, the kid is a freakin' genius. She has figured out that she can manipulate her parents and the system by behaving in this manner. Her parents speak for her and even found a school where a so-called "educator" teaches her class so the child will not have to communicate. She might as well be raised by wolves. At least the canines would teach her survival skills.
Of course, the mom has become PRESIDENT of some society for parents not willing to deal with their child's behavioral problems. Because it is clear in the article that "mutism" is more about the adults than the child.
I could have the kid talking in no time and I would not have to be some big meanie to do it. Of course, Mumsy might lose out on the publicity. Heaven forbid!
