I found your blog from visiting PoP's place. It's a good site!
I work with lots of kids who have ADHD, OCD, Asperger's... I'm a speech-language therapist in public schools so I get to see all kinds of ways in which kids have strengths (I think all things we consider "disorders" include strengths which can be channeled to the benefits of the students).
I am also a diehard lefty, and I have become much more of one since Bush stole the White House in 2000. I think he is the single worst person to ever occupy the house of the people. I basically view him as a squatter, and I can't wait to see him evicted.
I agree with your comments below about Condi. It IS about time someone held her sadly unaccountable feet to the fire, and that people woke up to the reality that further funding and escalation of this war is nothing but damaging to the USA.
You obviously love America! Why do the Republicans hate America so much?
It's cool that you're a speech-language therapist, Snave. Yes, kids with the disorders you mention do have lots of compensating strengths.
And why do Republicans hate America so much? I don't know; I can't understand people who think like the neocons who've been in power for the last 6 years. It's just alien to me. If you ever figure it out, please let us all know!
I welcome discussion of—and even disagreement with—my posts. But if you feel the need to call me or others rude or crude names, your comments will be deleted. I won't tolerate racism, sexism, ageism, looksism, weightism, gay-bashing, religion-bashing, culture-bashing, or any other prejudice here. Also, if your only reason for commenting is to link back to your site and not to discuss a post, your comment will be deleted.
