I banished the word stupid decades ago, but retarded needs to go out the door with it!

That is so far from the truth. There is no room for such ignorance or at least there shouldn't be. Words are very hurtful and cause much pain that can last for a life time.<br /><br />I am sorry that Isabella was subjected to this and hope it never happens again. My heart goes out to Bells and you Gail and her family.<br /><br />Thanks for stopping by my blog. And it was a little Zebra that told me. Ha! I love Zebras also. Did you know that the pattern on their skin are all different just as our fingerprints are all different. That is pretty amazing don't you think.<br /><br />Take care and have a Blessed Sunday!<br />ox Dianne :)Dianne ...

I just pray that Bells will learn to be resilient that these words will not hurt her. Of course, it will be even better if people learnt to be less cruel and more sensitive to those around them.Martha Jinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16471552594693298200noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7518866607914892618.post-72871903026353971322012-02-11T09:59:14.165-05:002012-02-11T09:59:14.165-05:00I am with you.
