  1. Those I played with are believed to be pros. They served well, hit with purpose, but "just a little too old to jump or move around" by their own word.

    They love volleyball, and understand why people come into this game, so that they would never complain even when sometimes younger kids were virtually "running over them". They also have the desire to win games like the rest of us.


  2. Can you rephrase this so it makes sense?

  3. well, yeah....i'm one of them. but it's true. i try to be quiet.

  4. Nope. Maybe I'm just nicer to retards.

  5. Not really. That is about insecurity and wanting to keep people at an arm's length. I am secure in who I am and am disabled, so I would never NOT be nice to anyone that doesn't deserve it. If a person gets mean and nasty (disabled or not)....then I will say something back to make them feel bad about what they said or did.

  6. How does this relate to volleyball? haha.

  7. Whats this have to do with volleyball??

  8. No...

  12. So many different disabilities in this world today, so much depression...no wonder they say the things they do. Just have patience and alot of love when dealing with them.

    I know TRETS and ODD and sometimes ADHD, BI POLAR1, BI POLAR 2,can cause these outburst, as well as out right puberty. It is not easy for the parent, friend or relative of a person going through this. Medication  only helps like 40% or the time, and if your really lucky maybe 70%. Behavior Modifcation with group therapy might contribute to helping them deal and manage with it.

    Feelings will go mashuggie, you just need to remember they are ill and they need you. Sometimes walking away for just a few deep breaths may help you deal with it, along with talking to others going through the same thing. They have mayny groups on yahoo. Check it out, for a support group for help. Your local mental health facility may have more info for you. Good Luck, Love & Hugs

  13. Only when I had to stand firm on an important issue.  My great-grandma suffered from dementia.  I would put her meds in a bowl for her to take and give her something to drink and she would totally forget about the meds.  A few hours later, I would find them still in the bowl because she had forgotten they were there.  So, I would watch her take them and reward her with a piece of fresh cobbler or a cookie.  I would hold the plate while I watched her take the meds.  She would ask if she could have a taste, and I told her that she could once she was done.  That's when I got the "you're not very nice"  remark.  My grandparents said that if I had to use that sort of method to get her to take her meds, so be it.
