Thank you for sharing this, Louise. This is life affirming when we see folks reaching out to do what they can to help someone.
Protecting our special needs population needs to be a top national priority. Kudos to football players for standing up for human rights! Bullying and abuse of disabled is at an all time high. Here’s a California case that demands maximum justice for the non verbal autistic young adult, beaten and tormented by two so called caregivers. The more this is exposed, the more others who think about bullying and abusing others will take note. Caregivers caught on tape eye gouging autistic man, kicking him in face and stomach, pulling his hair, just horrifying to think people are capable of doing this to anyone, let alone a defenseless disabled person. Lock these caregivers from hell up and throw away the keys.http://www.hlntv.com/video/2012/09/27/caught-tape-autistic-man-allegedly-abused-caregivers
