[QUOTE="mazdamama, post: 506867, member: 12227"] Just wanted to put my two cents in for what they are worth. I have two boys that will act out in public and embarass me but if someone looks oddly at me I just pop out with "It is so much fun raising special needs kids". I keep telling myself I should just get business cards printed up. I really don't give a hoot about my reputation because it is just fine. People around this small town know that I am a fighter and advocate for these two boys. When Daniel was bout 5 he was running to get to my van from a restaurant. An old biddie yelled at him and said his mother or grandmother should beat his ****. I waited until the boys were in the van and walked over to her and her firend. I let her know what these twp boys had been through and that unless you know what is going on you should keep your mouth SHUT. Sadly, the bio mom of the boys...my ex daugh in law had adoptive parents that chose to hide their flawed daughter. She was round and would not fit into their square hole. They were...umm...upstanding members of the community and did not want their community to know the problems Mama Rae had. They did not want their reputation ruined. I often wonder what they told people when she poured lighter fluid on herself and lit herself on fire. Your child is more important than any reputation. [/QUOTE]
