Then there are people like me; I set aside my differences to offer a kind work, only to be ignored, while the rest of usual contestants step into yet another ring, to fight yet another fight...I went through the same thing when a certain Conservative pasture pool player was involved in a car accident. I offered kind words there, only to be ignored.A lot of cold-hearted responses in this thread. No girl deserves to be attacked by bullies, regardless of whether she's deaf or Hoh or has aspbergers or anything or nothing.
Glad things turned out for the best. She did not deserve to be in that situation. I certainly hope these creeps are charged to the fullest extent. She has been damaged by this event, perhaps for life.
Might want to give some consideration to enrolling her in some type of martial arts/self defense classes. The self esteem benefits, plus the physical development, might really help her overcome this trauma.

I think you are "reading into" what I was conveying.
She was misdiagnosed with Aspbergers. She is HoH and does not have Aspbergers. The link between being "socially awkward" has nothing to do with Aspbergers and everything to do with being HoH.
I went through the same thing growing up. I made no implications about people with Aspbergers (her school counselor did).

It is apparent that there is a huge divide here, and it stinks. Even though we are all part of a special world, the division is disgusting. What will it take for people to put down their swords for a minute? Do we need 6,000 killed in a terrorist attack? Would that take on political overtones as well? *smh*
I noted your comment here ......very cool.
If I am the one that missed well wishes on the car accident I apologize.
Sometimes the politics need to be set aside. I do try to keep things in the appropriate areas.
Now we can get back on topic. Sorry for the rant. Thanks again to you and Reba.
I agree with the rant...
Like Global Warming......
Maybe someday people will stop arguing over the existence of global warming and it's possible causes long enough to notice there is alot of damn smog in the air. Makes me sick every time I go to SF and have to wonder what it looked like 100 years ago.
Maybe next election I will form "The smog's too damn thick" party.....lol

The police have arrested the boys involved and there have been over 20 charges filed. The one who kicked her has priors.
