I think that stranger is the idiot. Just because someone has a disability or is different from another person, doesn't mean you shouldn't treat well like a normal person. You treat that person how you wanted to be treated.

my love goes out to them too babygirl. How can people be so ignorant and cruel. Down Syndrome folk are great. I worked with a lot of them and they are happy inteligent loving and kind and they will work hard to catch up to their peers. I never met any that I didn't fall in love with immediately.

However slow Steven may be in some ways,
"One hundred Christmas cards" was the perfect way to measure how much that insensitive clod's comment hurt him.
The Insensitive Clod, by the way, opened the way for over 2000 people to express caring and healing, which is not a bad thing.

This is a great post. I love reading about the response of loving people to the request for Christmas Cards. And yes, there are way too many of the other kind of people. It is sad that they don't know what they are missing out on.

A lovely gesture and a forgiving human, some would have wished a curse.
