Sesame (Street) Workshop has a heap of resources for grown ups and kids experiencing traumatic or difficult events - displacement, grief, disasters, violence, foster care, divorce, and parents in jail/or struggling with addictions. They've got nice printables you can use with kids or (yourself).

These men are really determined to show the world how right you are. Maybe to save time someone could build a labeler for any men that reply to you.

it's my daughter's birthday and I ordered her a monster cake from Carvel and this is the picture on the website and this is the picture of it in real life. please note: this is not a complaint. if this had been the picture on the website i would have paid more

photograph of the actual cake through a carvel box, the guy looks fuuuuucked upppppp. he looks surprised and disgusted

This is a brilliant analogy. So much time and energy is wasted on their nonsense at the cost of so much else.

I really wish there was more research in the area. I asked a heap of professionals for resources for our little dude when he was born, but everything about adoptees with intellectual disabilities was for kids from orphanages, not local open adoptions. It was really fucked up.

I believe it is higher. About a 3rd of kids in care in Australia have disabilities, and a huge amount of their parents have disabilities too. It's really a symptom of our lack of support for people who may be more likely to need some help, not their capacity to be parents, or the needs of the kids.
