Aw sorry, I was sure I saw her today on SJX? Is she maybe filling in for someone? I'm not denying that your telling the truth, it just looked/tumbled really like her!

Nope, her sister just confirmed.

I have never had a "good" fitting pair of cheer uniform pants.
Thank the lord for my big butt or my pants would be to my ankles every routine.

hahaha. We have had CP's altered in the past but usually for length.

I've always thought of it like that 12stepCheermom. Most of those parents do (and are tweeting about it). If you single out people for being handicapped, you're always drawing attention to the fact that they're not "normal". Parents who don't let their little children ask what's wrong when they see someone/something they don't understand are really just doing the other person a disservice. I cannot tell you how many times I've been thanked by people for allowing my daughter to ask what's wrong instead of her wondering out loud and me telling her to "shhh". I have many examples, but the most recent involved a man w/an artifical limb. We were at the dr. waiting for my appt. and she wanted to know what was wrong w/his leg. Even though she was quiet, it was obvious he heard her. We told her to go over and ask him, so she did. The gentleman was over the moon happy!! He said that's all he ever wishes for and he never gets it bc parents are too embarrassed that their kids are naturally wondering why someone was missing a limb and won't let them ask/tell them to "shhh", etc.

He proceeded to tell my daughter what happened and showed her what he could do w/his leg AND we found out that there are some really incredible advances that have come along w/artificial limbs. He was so happy bc he said that's what makes him feel "normal". I've always felt by not acknowledging the obvious you're just teaching your kid (albeit inadvertently) that they're "different" or "abnormal" compared to the rest of us, thus they whisper and even pick on handicap kids bc they lack the understanding. That's also exactly what that man told us as well. They're not stupid and by letting them all win, I'm willing to bet that instead of making them feel better, it makes them feel worse bc then you're saying, "hey, y'all aren't normal compared to all these other athletes". The Special Olympics is scored after all, right? Just my 2cents.

Asking and smiling are totally ok. Staring not ok.

And yes, Special Olympics are judged and ranked and scored. It is the same. Give us the positive opinions and the information on how we can improve.
