Dennis is simply a dickhead and that's why he's in my killfile. All I'll say
is that my son's situation is such that I can relate to some of the issues brought up here. However, Dennis is obviously such a mental midget that he simply doesn't get it.... either that or he thinks like my ex does.... which means he doesn't think at all. That's ok though. He's entitled to his opinion..... THough it's completely worthless to me and is as good as deleted. It's a pity really.... should this guy actually have something useful to offer.... Haven't seen anything useful from him though.... Oh well.... such is life I suppose..... shrug -- "Many have forgotten this truth, but you must not forget it.

Dennis Sounds like being a single parent is difficult and this single parent needs more support IRL than she is getting and wouldn't mind finding some here to temporarily fill in the gaps until real life eases up a bit (which it will...as the kids get older) 'Kate |

when someone replies to him, I see it in their reply. Yes, he is in my
filter. WHen there was a reply to him, I ended up seeing that crap. Sorry but I figured I'd bring it out into the open.... besides, why should I sit around while that creep flames me and I end up seeing it in a reply.... am I supposed to just turn the other cheek? I refuse to let anyone walk all over me like I'm nothing. Dennis has done nothing but throw out insults and flames at me since the day I arrived on this group. I lurk until I feel I have something to contribute or ask. Just because I can relate to someone doesn't mean that I'm a drama queen when I post such. However, that creep has no clue about what's wrong with my son. I don't have any kind of support except here and on other groups dealing with parenting. So as far as your comment of "apparently not" you don't have a clue as to how my filters are set.... just as I don't have a clue as to how yours are set. I am just sick and tired of seeing a piggyback where some bozo has to sit there and flame me and insult me because they have something against single moms. It's simply a pity that he's such a miserable failure and has to take it out on someone like me (or whomever his target happens to be for that day.) while I'm desperately trying to do what I can for my son. -- "Many have forgotten this truth, but you must not forget it.

then please... enlighten me... what *is* this "forum" about??? Last I knew,
it was about single parents trying to parent their children. Forgive me for not living up to the standards set. I'm still pretty new here. I thought that perhaps by not only relating to some here but having some relate to me would help... apparently no one particularly gives a damn. I'm here for the sake of my kids, personally, I'm sick of the attitude if I call someone down for attacking me. It's too bad, really..... a real shame. This group to me looked like the perfect place to get advice on my son who happens to be disabled and I'm stuck raising him alone. His bio dad is the worst kind of deadbeat POS alive and I'm doing the best I can.... considering that with my son's disabilities, he gets kicked around from one school to another and I really have no choice because that's how our beloved "system" works! To those bureaucrats, my son is nothing but a piece of meat to be tossed from one animal to another in the hopes of getting rid of it. To me, my son is a little human being with some real problems that need to be addressed by the right kind of programs and support system in order for his life to be somewhat "normal" so that way he doesn't feel like such an outcast. To be honest, I'm just sooooooo glad that *your* kids are so perfect... so perfect in every single way.... that *you* don't have to battle school districts just to find placement for *your* child so he can get what he desperately needs.... aren't *you* just so lucky that you never have to worry about how crappy your kid is going to be treated based on his disability.... isn't that a little something called "discrimination" when a person is treated poorly because of a disability?? Boy, aren't you lucky???? If I were you, I'd be very thankful that you don't have a kid with disabilities and that your child is so bloody normal. Best of luck considering that you've apparently reached the point of perfect success and therefore must be just soooo much better of a parent than I am. guess that gives people like Dennis the right to judge me. Amazing how there's tolerance for what *he* does but there's no tolerance for someone desperate for resources in order to make sure that her child gets the best possible care and support that she can. You know.... Personally, I'm sick of the lack of tolerance. It's too bad.... it really is. such a shame.... hey, that's fine. Whatever.... snip That's true, and kind, and it's unfortunate that it's not really what this forum is about. lm |

You have every right to reply to Dennis's comments, and to disagree with him. Doing so means that his opinion is not "completely worthless to [you] and is as good as deleted." lm |

Subject: Incessant, relentless talking and needing constant attention.
From: "slykitten" ms Date: 12/23/2004 4:37 PM Eastern Standard Time Message-id: Dennis is simply a dickhead and that's why he's in my killfile. Is that kinda the same as a penis wrinkle? All I'll say is that my son's situation is such that I can relate to some of the issues brought up here. Sly, by chance was your son ever diagnosed ADHD? Just curious? However, Dennis is obviously such a mental midget Is that kinda like a "mini me" impersonator? that he simply doesn't get it.... either that or he thinks like my ex does.... which means he doesn't think at all. That's ok though. He's entitled to his opinion..... THough it's completely worthless to me and is as good as deleted. It's a pity really.... should this guy actually have something useful to offer.... Haven't seen anything useful from him though.... Oh well.... such is life I suppose..... shrug Nah He is one of "those" ya know Unlike those of us that are not perfect parents I believe you truly have a motor mouth on your hands, if that is any consolation....I still don't know why you took a dislike to me though ? Oh well such is life I suppose....shrug Bev "Many have forgotten this truth, but you must not forget it.

Not to mention the dozens of therapists, gurus, doctors and mumbo jumbo men involved in this boys life. He has multiple issues goin on ....why not "motor mouthing " as well ? So what you're suggesting is that the children (you realize that it was her daughter who was losing it over the son's chattering) are fine, therefore it is the adult who is overwhelmed and overly sensitive? I think that the mother (slykitten) just gets off on jumping in on a thread with an attention seeking response. Her son is all things to all threads, but bigger! Ahhhh ....O.K. ...I recall reading quite a bit about his many issues and I have never felt she was grandstanding for attention? why would anyone "get off" that way? As a mom that has a child with some very real and devastating issues I could never "get off" that way ? You are accusing Sly of being quite ill do you realise that Dennis? I think her problems with her boy are real. I do not believe or see what you are saying. Everyone could feel better with more RL support. This single parenting thing gets easier ? I think parenting a special needs child does not get easier as the child gets older. for a single parent to find other parents maybe dealing with similar issues with their children IRL would surely be better than support from many in this group ( who blame the parents for the childrens issues) and that Sly by her own addmission several times has sought out help IRL? As a matter of fact all those people you say are not helping her son but hurting him....ya know those proffesionals that are supposed to be highly educated and able to help our children but end up just practicing on them and using them as guinea pigs, pill testers, and pin cushions? Having a child with special needs is a very hard place to be....you need a tough skin and strong will to deal day in and day out with a child that struggles with emotional, behavioral, and possible mental health issues. Of course we as parents of these kids seek the help and support of the medical people that we turn to in ussually a desperate attempt to understand ourselves what pain our children are in. It just irks my craw when people think they know what it is like to be one of us...or mock one of us, or accuse one of us as being sick in some way as to be the reason our children suffer. Ya know many of these things they are coming up with now are things a child is BORN with and not due to any kind of illness or neglect from one or both parents. what is sick is that someone named this group what it is and that unsuspecting people fall in for the game many are here playing. I learned.....thats why it is in the for "FUN" section of my favorites ................ Sounds like being a single parent is difficult and this single parent needs more support IRL than she is getting and wouldn't mind finding some here to temporarily fill in the gaps until real life eases up a bit (which it will...as the kids get older) Like I said ...LOL! support here? you are to funny ! There are to many perfect parents in this group that need a wake up call on them like maybe" a day in the life "and then they'd get it. |

Thank you! I'm just a bit grumpy tonight.... a little oversensitive. I got
hit with a sore throat and the beginnings of the flu. Right now it feels as though my "tough skin" has a bit of a tear in it..... =) -- "Many have forgotten this truth, but you must not forget it.
