It's not about what to do with disabled folks, it's about preventing it. Eighty percent of mental retardation is avoidable. It makes me mad as hell to think we allow kids to be harmed in this manner because we are too polite to say anything. Schools can't fix retardation, neither can employers. Retardation occurs at home and it should be addressed there.
Our overall IQ in this nation has dropped 10-20 points in the last generation. We are becoming a nation of morons because we allow it to continue.
True love of mankind is speaking out on the truth of the issues, whether someone calls you a Nazi or a Klansman. It's easier to make me the bitch than it is to make me correct and actually fix this problem.
Read this again, QB. You will find you let emotion overcome reason. I never said ALL disabilities. I have more sense than to generalize, like some others.
I know I don't hold a popular opinion. It places blame. And it should. Why do we allow kids to suffer for no good reason? How fun is it to sit in a classroom all day, year after year, and not understand a damn thing because your mom didn't spend enough time with you as a baby stimulating your intellect? Why do we let this happen? WHY?
Because we are too chickenshit to say something. That's why. It is wholly unfair to children. I don't give a fuck about most adults, but I care deeply about these affected kids. It isn't fucking right or fair, nor is it "polite."
