I hate you people...

I hate you people who stare at my son like he is some kind of freak. I hate you people who point at him and call him a retard. Just because he doesn't comprehend that word, you think it's okay? Do you feel like a big person for calling a fourteen year old that? Does it make you feel good? You think it's okay to laugh at him? It's not. He has a right to be in the park, same as your kid. He loves to swing. You don't have to make fun of him for that. You are a bully, and I feel sorry for you, and your child alike. You are narrow-minded people. My son is a wonderful boy. True, he can not communicate. True, he has meltdowns and gets violent at times. It's not for no reason at all. The music is too loud, there's too many people, he can't stand the color black. Nonetheless, he is NOT a retard. And he still wants to be your friend. Instead of using his words, he uses actions. He's not that different and you shouldn't make us feel bad for wanting him to be somewhat normal. But mostly, I hate you because you will never know what it is like to have a child who is not normal. And I hate myself for hating you.
How do you figure? It's even defined in the dictionary as OFFENSIVE.
Is this joke offensive?
"Americans are the most charitable people in the world. They even elected that retarded cowboy fella, to be president".

Not their fault YOU get offended by the word.
It's not a funny joke because it's lame, and it's not a true statement because he's not slow, he doesn't have mental delays and he has accomplished many things. It's only retarded republicans who can't see that.

Just to make a futile attempt to ease this back on to the track, what I meant was that 'retarded' is, today, no longer a diagnosis, it is an insult. And yes, it is offensive.

Sending hugs to you both.
Some people suck.
Sorry people are rude to your son. But don't let him be aggressive when you go out...
I would love to see you at the park pushing your son in the swing. My DS loves to swing too and I would probably strike up a conversation with you.
So don't think everyone who is staring is doing it with any malice. I certainly am not.
