Some people are just plain idiots. These are people you would like to take your shoe off and beat them around the head and shoulders until they learn something or at least develop compassion and tact.

I had issues and wore corrective shoes until I was in the 3rd grade. (My feet turned inward). My cousin, born within a few months of myself, had much more severe issues and wore the baby shoes with the metal plate attaching them and later had to wear leg braces for many years. His feet and legs are fine. None of our children have these issues. It makes me wonder though if it was environmental or something our mothers were ingesting while pg as it happened to both of us but to no one else in our family before or after.

I do know the 1960's was a grewsome time to be a pg woman. Doctor's made guinea pigs out of many women and their babies with all their new 'medicine'.

When I was in college, I knew this woman who played the piano with the best of them. By that I mean she could turn her own pages, sing, and ad-lib. Not so special until you looked at her fingerless hands! She was born without fingers, and the doctors grafted tiny little crooked nubs to her knuckles, and that's what she played with. And she didn't just play well "considering what she had to work with", she played really well! Ever since, I assume that those who ae deficient in one aspect, either physical or mental, has a special message for the world or something to teach us. I'm waiting for someone to come along to teach me how to write without using so many commas.

Ruthie, you're a much better person than I am and I admire how you handled it. I also wish the best for your family.

I probably would have had an afternoon in the county jail because I would have said the above quote right to the woman's face..and then I probably would have grabbed a ketchup bottle and at least tried to beat the stupid out of her.

When someone always gets nosy about my child you know what makes me feel better......

A high speed game of peek-a-boo. No one can feel bad when they hear a cute baby laugh....

Guarenteed to work.

Like Ron White said "You can fix a lot of things, but you can't fix stupid!"

When she remarked about the mother doing drugs, I would have said "No, but is that what happened to you."

What ever happened to treat others the way you would want to be treated? I try to do this all I can and teach my kids this lesson to. Wouldn't it be nice if everyone did.

I am so so sorry you and your granddaughter had to meet someone with so little intelligence, compassion and heart. it is sad that there are people in this world that think "perfection" is textbook and that if it is not the way the book says....it must not be worth having around.

Your granddaughter will grow up to be a strong woman because of her grandmother and mother instilling in her the 'right' stuff.
