Well I guess we are officially members of the club now. I've heard many other moms tell stories of stupid things people have said to them but have never had it happen. Well today it happened, not to me but to Wes.
We went to my niece's graduation party at my sisters house today, and took the kids of course. Well Wes got to talking to the neighbors about Gage and that he had autism. Well they are both teachers, which in their minds makes them experts in autism (insert eye roll here). As Gage went running off toward the fence Wes started after him and as he was walking away the woman says "Yea I just feel so blessed that both of our girls are so intelligent and beautiful"
Ummmm. OK I guess a kid with autism is ugly and stupid. It's probably good that I wasn't there because I probably would have made her feel very uncomfortable. I can't stand people who act like they know everything but in fact know nothing. It scares me that this woman teaches children. Wes was chasing after Gage and it didn't really register with him what she said until a few minutes later and the moment had passed.
Sigh.... there sure are some stupid idiots out there.... and they're teaching our kids....yikes!
Oh and just for fun I decided to add a picture of my stupid ugly kid. (insert sarcasm)
