[QUOTE="AllStressedOut, post: 68098, member: 3837"] My husband has a college buddy who comes over maybe 3 times a year, the most recently a poker night. Well this friend is a highschool teacher, no kids of his own though. In less than 30 minutes he's erked one of my close friends who has a daughter with social anxiety disorder, telling her he doesn't believe that she should be granted special circumstances in class just because she has a 504 status. That she should present her report in front of everyone just like the rest of the kids, how else is she going to overcome her SAD? He also loves to tell us how bedtime should work here. How he doesn't understand why youngest difficult child has to go to bed 30 minutes earlier than everyone else, especially when youngest easy child is younger than he is. I explain its because he can't fall asleep if there are others in there to distract him and easy child takes a nap each day. Then I realize, hey, why am I explaining myself to this guy, I don't have to. BRAVO to you for putting everyone in their place! I hate dealing with it inside my home or with friends, nevermind in public with strangers. You did great! I'm sorry it was so awful though! [/QUOTE]
