[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 618719, member: 1550"] Hey...slsh, you brought up the one thing that does irk me about differently wired people, or some of them. The help is out there. When they refuse to get it, insist they are just like everyone else even though they can't navigate through life and don't even try, then I have a big problem with it. And I never think violence is ok. I don't care if they are autistic, bipolar, borderline, ABCD or all of the above. They need to learn coping skills to control or their anger or nobody will even WANT to teach them how to improve their lives. When I hear stats like 60% of bipolars refuse to take medication, then my empathy for them dies a quick death. If they are unwilling to help themselves and are doing badly, then to me the fault lies with them. It is like having cancer and refusing chemo. It is foolhearty and not something to enable. [/QUOTE]
