Adults with Intellectual disabilities can be parents?

This movie is great I saw it on youtube ( has since been taken down) I want to be a mom one day so parents with disabilities give me a lot of hope that I can.

Another good movie gets ruined

So today I went with my dad and brother to see trouble with a curve. It was a good movie wait let me repress that it was almost a good movie but then someone used the R word and it was not a teachable moment. I think this is the second movie this year that has used it when will hollywood ever lean. Why do people seem to think that its still ok to use the r word. I know a lot of people with intellectual disabilities and that word hurts. It isn't ok. What harm will a harmless movie do you ask well people see it and think its ok. It isn't OK. Treat others the same way you like to be treated. People with intellectual disabilities have feelings and they can be hurt by saying this word. It is not Ok. I know of some little guys with intellectual disabilities who love baseball but this movie will not be good for them to see because of a couple of lines of dialogue.

Yesterday was a bad day

Most days I do not feel bad about disabilities but there are times when I do. Yesterday was one of those day.

It started out in class when I asked someone to join me to study and they said no. Too make matters worse I am trying to befriend this guy and I thought it was going well , but then his friend from high school who hadn't been in class for a while came back and I could see their interaction and realized that we were not friends .

Then we went to the Oregon Standford V ball game to root for the ducks, by the way since Princess has started going there my parents have been turned into duck fans I think they are growing wings lol.

My first soccer team G U-6 So cute

Watching the game it hit me that I play on special olympics, and thus we do not have nice uniforms and for soccer, which along with basketball and golf are my favorite sports. we only have eight practices. We practice once a week for two hours. That is not a long time. Regular sports get longer seasons. It seems like our seassons are getting shorter and shorter. Its not fair. We will train for eight weeks and play a tourment that consist of two to three games and that's all. I want more. When will Special Olympics realize that this program is the only advenu for people with disabilities to play sports. If we only have eight weeks couldn't we have practice twice a week for two hours. Once week does not allow athletes too improve right. Just saying.
