I am tired of your ignorance. I pray that God does not bless you with a child that has problems. You won't make it because you are not strong enough. But then again, maybe you need to experience life this way and then you would shut your mouth.
How dare you speak about a situation that you have no knowledge of the daily struggle. There are people with children that are more severe than my kids. My kids' problems are not just another behavior problem. Their problems are real and their problems suck. It makes my life miserable and it causes major strain on the whole family. I don't need your negativity and know-it-all attitude in my life. (please don't get me wrong, I love my kids and I wouldn't change one thing, really)
My child was having a reaction to a medication that caused them to have no control over their actions. Did you know that my child almost failed school several times because of the problem? Did you know that I lay awake at night crying over the fact that my child might never be like other kids? Did you know that when my child started hitting me and kicking me, I wanted to give up on life right then? Did you know that when you made the comment, "Oh my God! Get that kid out of here, how rude to let your kid scream and yell here while I am eating my dinner!", that perhaps that Mom was trying to calm her child down with all that she had but she couldn't because the child could not control their outburst? Heartbreaking to us Mom's that as hard as we try to help our kids fit in, that because of comments like yours, my 5 year old believes he is a failure.
You should think before you speak. What you say does have an impact on someone else's life. Jesus showed everyone love. I know it is hard to accept what you don't understand. It's hard for me some days to understand why at 5 minutes before I have to leave for work, he or she has to go into full meltdown throwing things at me, kicking me, punching me, pinching me, telling me how much they hate me...yeah, my life is so wonderful on days like that...and no, a woman or man who has a job should not be punished because their child has problems with controlling their thoughts and actions. Bosses should show empathy and compassion to these type of people as they are going to probably be your most loyal employee and hardworking too. What they handle at work is nothing compared to when they are at home taking care of their child.
Well, young something that has no idea about what life is really about, I am praying for you. I am praying that your ignorance stops and that if someday you have a child, and if your lucky enough to be blessed with a special kid like mine, that you don't struggle like I've had to...I don't wish this life on anyone. I will pray for you then too but perhaps with a little grin (I am human and a Mama Bear). Until you walk a even a tiny little step in my shoes, I would appreciate it if you would keep your condescending comments to yourself, not on Facebook, not on Twitter, not whispered behind my back...just tuck it into your little brain and remember that us parents who are #raisingextraspecialkids (shout out to one of my favorite peeps) are much stronger than you will ever be. Don't mess with us.
