PSYCHE... Prolly wrong place for this but I want as big as an audience to read... Moderators please be gentle. :)

So some of you are aware that I have a son who has Down Syndrome. He is by far my best friend and the single most important person in the world to me. In around a month they are holding events across the country called "The Buddy Walk". This Fund Raiser has no goals for a cure, we aren't securing money for treatment we are spreading the word of understanding and acceptance of children and individuals who are different.

This little Blue eye'd Blonde hair boy, who for for all intents and purposes could easily pass for my kid, is my best friend and I would humiliate myself infront of an Online gaming community to ask that you just take a few seconds and consider this.. No one has to give any money (especially since its like a ******* recession and all lol?) but just consider that Landon like alot of people with special needs maybe are just looking to be normal and not singled out. They didn't choose this hand, but in cases like landon's we are not complaining. I love my co-pilot and one day hes gonna be bushidoing you *people* along side his DAAEEEYYYY.

Im linking our Buddy walk team, TEAM DOO, and all funds recieved go to activities in the 'Kids Groups' these children and individuals participate in. So your essentially buying pizza or Sesame Street tickets, things like that. Go to the donations part... Select TEAM then find 'TEAM DOO'.

I was gonna put the pictures of him in here... but the damn forums arent letting me.. :/

I was going to include facts regarding Society.... and Down Syndrome. But it can be upseting and I do not wanna offend anyone or use this podium to push my view point vs what this could do for Landon and people like him. THANK YOU for reading this guys and considering it even if its just momentarily.

This is a fine topic, but it belongs in the Out of Pod Experience, not here.

awww what a wonderful kid.

Made me smile with his huge 'Here I am' pose there. What's not to love?

From one dad to another, keep fighting the good fight and good luck with your fund raiser!

Its pretty amusing to me that people are likely more drawn to a topic titled rage and bad posting.

v0v love him all the same? I dunno what would it matter if he was gay lol

I mean if the fact I used the word *nope* is some how a big deal, I really did not mean to offend you. But at the same time.. its just a word. ****** is used all the time... My son will not be someone who cries, whines, who feels some how less than he is because people choose to use words that some people might find offensive. I want him to be PROUD of who he is... and regardless of what ANYONE says he can accomplish that. I am not offended over the term R e t a r d, it is just a word. I would never try to be offensive or hurtful to someone who is Homosexual.. and if they were offended by the terminology I use I would expect that they respect my use and intentions. I litearlly love everyone and hate no one.. Dont put meanings to words that I did not intend them for.


EDIT: Those kinds of words carry very heavy negative connotations in this day and age, and as such we like to keep them out of the forums. Thank you for your understanding - ISD Type40.

Then you would still be an ******* for trolling a topic about raising money for children with Down Syndrome.
