So I was outside skating today when some kid walked up to me. I could tell that the kid was a little off, but thatā??s not unusual for this area, and even if it was, no big deal. So I get to ask this dude about his life, and heā??s kind of funny, different and out there, but funny nevertheless. The conversation drags on, and I get back on my board and skate around the same area so I could get some practice in, and still keep the conversation going.

About 30 mins into the kids life story, I ask him will he be excited to go to high school next year and will his parents let him drive, when he just looks at me with puppy dog eyes and says:
Kid: promise you wonā??t laugh.
Skrappie: sure dude, whatā??s up?
Kid: Iā??m too retarded to learn
Skrappie:ā?¦.what?

Now I get to asking him what makes him ā??retardedā? and, this is the shocker of the story, he told me he couldnā??t see well.

To wrap the story up the kid, outside of having some vision problems, was pretty normal, the fucked up part is he eventually told me that his parents are the ones that told him he was retarded. I kept asking the kid about different things that would generally classify one as developmentally challenged and he didnā??t have a problem, just verbally abusive parents.

What the fuck is wrong with people. IF you donā??t want to put effort into putting effective and healthy (mentally, physically, socially) children in the world, then donā??t have kids.
Iā??m so angry right now; I really want to talk to this dudeā??s parents.
