Talk:Emily Kingsley

Ridiculous
These woman is ridiculous. She insulted an entire nation with her so-called 'essay'. I wonder if she's ever been to Holland, especially before she wrote that crap? Probably not! I'm glad her life was ruined (why else would you compare it to a trip to Holland) by her mongoloid child. This narrow-minded woman does not deserve to be mentioned on Wikipedia. Since I suspect that she's has submitted this article herself, I'm asking her to please remove herself from this encyclopedia. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.10.46.8 (talk) 20:34, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Helpful
Dear Ridiculous - unsigned comment maker. This essay by Emily Perl Kingsley was very helpful to my family when our son was born with multiple disabilities. She is not being negative about Holland. She is explaining that when you have a child with a disability you find yourself in a new and unexpected place. It is there where you learn the nuances of the new place and learn to love it. I think if you search the web for all the organizations and parents who have used this essay and commented on how much it helped them you'd get it. But I have a feeling since you did not sign your comment, it may be that your disability is simply being negative. I find being positive is much better for your health.
