[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am the OP. WOW!!! I appreciate all the answers, because this is what it is about. Please realize that I framed my question highlighting the barriers or difficulties I may experience when interacting with this mom. Of course we do have a lot of common! Having to deal with the rude pool staff, suffering the rowdy kids who often put us off going in the water, the nice neighborhood we live in, or just being a mom or a human being or whatever, there are many ways I can start small talk! And yes, it is because I realize that I or anybody could have had a SN child that I have an enormous respect for her. I knew some people would feel offended, but please realize I am probably not the only one who can feel insecure, esp not knowing how you will take it when my own kids stare, and for this reason, out of respect, keep distance with you. Of course not holding the rude or saying hi is just plain rude, but I feel that this is a different topic. [/quote] The posters who jumped all over OP are illustrating one reason why people don't approach others with SN...they are so afraid of offending! It feels safer to do nothing. [/quote]
