When children do it, its understandable, but not when the adults do it.

I will tell you a story about the neighbor's daughter who have some physical and mental handicaps, she is about 13-14 years old.

One day I was waiting for the bus and so was she. We were talking about this and that..

I asked her if she was looking forward to the summer holiday, she was of course. I asked her how things was going in school.

Then she told me that the other children at school, now and then mocked her, due to her disabilities.

I said she should forgive them thou they do not know-they are as you-just children.
Then she said something, Even the adult do it.
Do they mock you? I replied
No not exactly. then she said

Not so long ago I was visiting a friend and we were at the playground and playing with other children there-then some grown-up came and toke one of the children and said-Haven't I told you not to play with that weirdo.

it felt like a dagger struck my heart when I heard that. I also felt a huge furious inside me.
