I have a mentally disabled neighbor. He is in his 20's. One of the sweetes gys ever. When i was picking up the steps from the bus stop i saw a group of neighborhood kids ganging up on him. On of my stepkids was involved in name calling. A few of the kids where pushing him around making threats. I dont know whay the heck possessed them to do that. His parents came out threating to call the police. I pulled my ss back after all the kids ran and forced him to apologize. I even apologid and started to cry. This sweet man who had j u st minutes before was getting attacked hugged me. He told me its ok don't cry.

Wow what a sweetheart. I waited with them for the cops and helped give disruption of the kids involved. The officers gave my ss an earful. Even his own twin brother was upset with him. When we got home he got a good grounding DH and i laid down the law. Even BM couldn't justify this. Bullhorn is never ok.

Just because other people are doing it doesn't make it cool it makes you look like a fool. I asked him why they felt the need to do that. He said the neighbor was acting gay. Why? Because he told a kid he
had a pretty backpack. All he was doing was getting his mail and being friendly to the kids and they attacked him. I am disgusted.

The one thing my neighbor loves doing is going outside and feeling a little independence . To check his mail, get the news paper, walk his dogs and greet the people walking by. Now the poor guy can't even feel safe doing that anymore. This generation of kifs make me sick.
