[QUOTE="Sheila, post: 203596, member: 23"] It's not political at all. People that want to find fault with the mother will find fault -- she's in a catch-22 situation. I have been advocating for special needs children for years. We all fight general public ignorance. Attitudes of this type perpetuate myths and stigma. She's in a position to influence millions of people, and chose to use a special needs child as her target. Frankly, I've grown weary of working to getting rid of the stigma just to have some ignorant person make an effort to continue it by way of the media. Frankly, I've had enough of it. [/QUOTE]
