26. How to Handle Unwanted Comments about your Special Needs Child
from Overcome the Overwhelm for Special Needs Moms · host Lauren Lowery
Will he ever walk? What’s wrong with him? Well at least she’s cute! She doesn’t look disabled. We’ve all heard them. We’ve all been hurt and angry about them. We’ve all wanted to respond with sarcasm or maybe even had the urge to just reach across that shopping cart at Walmart and slap them. In this episode we talk about how to handle these unwanted comments. We talk about why they are even said in the first place, and how getting angry (as tempting as it may be) isn’t always the answer.
