“so you hate kiwis eh.... at least i know where i stand now...im a lil green fury thing... i was liking most of what you said up till then....” noooo, that’s not what I said you is twisting my words and now you’ve turned into a little green angry thing Anyway, I might move to Scotland where food intolerances are to be outlawed
you best move to scotchland as im not sure we like your type in england or ireland... you nasty... picking on lil green fruit... .
clearly you have been abducted by ET then (not @El Toro ) but the other annoying cunts that disrupt day to day life .. mexicans....we need a wall and we need it now....
id like to say i'm pleased to hear that but im just not... still. i brought it on myself.. there's another none to pretty thought....
Scotland, where they have banned kids heading footballs and a mum smacking her child’s hand when they do something that nearly kills themselves... intolerance is in the breed.
I have a new dog and I keep reading that peanut butter will harm them yet I also see pet shops selling dog treats made with peanut butter. I also bought a puzzle thing the other day which has compartments which the dog has to learn to unlock in order to find a hidden treat and the instructions recommend using treats with a strong smell such as (amongst other things), peanut butter.
I think we’ve simply found new labels for old problems. I have a kid (17) who is aspergers who presents as being extremely bright but also had huge problems processing written (but not spoken) words and numbers, along with attention problems and some OCD/tic type behaviours such as spinning a shoelace while muttering to himself for relaxation (often in inappropriate circumstances, like in class or at a funeral!). In days gone by he’d either have just been seen as eccentric and quirky but he would have also been labelled as disruptive and slow, ie: a “rem” (remedial) and would have been sent to a special school. A couple of people from the forum have met him and unless they’d known it in advance, I doubt they’d think he had a diagnosed mental health disorder. So in some ways I find the need to medicalise every problem these days a little problematic (eg: badly brought up brat = suffers from oppositional défiant disorder) but also, getting a diagnosis for my son when he was 7 enabled (well, we forced) the council to pay for him to have a 1-1 teaching assistant with him all day every school day and so he was able to access the education system. Thanks to that, he no longer thinks he is useless and a failure. In fact, he’s thriving - he’s like a human google in terms of the amount of stuff he knows but unlike many other Asperger kids (or the stereotype at least) he isn’t withdrawn or anti social - just the opposite, and almost everyone who meets him falls for his warm, kind hearted and friendly personality, he's studying for A levels, plays Futsal for a premier league youth team, he is an FA qualified referee and coach, he does voluntary work by helping coach a team of partially sighted kids in his spare time and fingers crossed he will be going to uni to study history the year after next. If he’d been schooled in the 70s and 80s like me, however, he’d have probably been labelled thick and disruptive (even more likely as he’s black/mixed), beaten black and blue and made to stand in the corner with a dunce cap on his head, heading towards a life on society's scrapheap.
