[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, we're in the same boat. First child was totally healthy, second child has an assortment of medical issues (severely disabling ones) and I'm trying to get over the desire for a third. We can't handle a third emotionally or financially, but I still want one. Thank god my husband has said no. We'd definitely be pushing our luck if we went for a third. [b]A second disabled child would cripple our family.[/b] So two it is. Only you can make the decision about what is best for your family. [/quote] For someone who identifies as having a child with disabilities you certainly use offensive and ableist language. You might want to work on that. Sending your second child love and empathy. [/quote] Oh STFU -DP[/quote] Really? I was pretty horrified by that comment as well. That phrasing is akin to saying that someone gypped you. Both are incredibly offensive things to say.[/quote] Cripple is an english word with a real definition. Are you offended when someone says something like, 'mortgage brokers in the early aughts crippled the United States economy.'?[/quote] Except she's specifically talking about people with disabilities causing the crippling.[/quote] Yeah that was a shitty thing to say. I feel bad for that kid.[/quote] Yes she definitely doesn't love her kid. :roll: I feel bad for you. You must walk around being offended all day. Life must be so painful for delicate flowers like you.[/quote]
