[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Gee. My dream was that my child would be able to hear. She is not able to do that. People like you make me sick, OP.[/quote]

+1 I honestly thought when I read the title of this thread that it would be from a special needs parent trying to grapple with the idea that their child will never go to college or have a typical adult experience. Please recognize your good fortune OP.

This, exactly. OP, you are very blessed.[/quote]

WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD SOMEONE COME TO A COLLEGE FORUM AND THINK FOR A SPLIT MINUTE THAT THIS HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH A PHYSICALLY IMPAIRED CHILD? MAJOR DISCONNECT, THIS THREAD IS ODD VERY ODD. WHILE I AM VERY SORRY FOR THE PARENTS OF A CHILD WHO CANNOT HEAR, THIS IS A RATHER RANDOM PLACE TO COME AND ASSUME THATS WHATS BEING DISCUSSED.[/quote]

No need to shout, but I agree. This is not the thread to discuss your SN child and how sad you are about it. There is a SN forum.[/quote]

Kids with special needs can go to college too, you know. And parents of kids with special needs are allowed to read and comment on non-SN threads (and to use the Recent Posts feature, as I do, which means you don't pay as much attention to the forum name.) The title of OP's post did sound like something that should be on the SN board.

And more importantly, people like the OP could certainly use the perspective that people are forced to gain when their child has SN or another serious challenge. [/quote]
