it really does make you think!!!...just shows that there are some really good people out there in the real world!!!!!..Rachel..xx

rachel have you seen billys sister singing on youtube ? manta rose she is brilliant,think its called "school concert manta rose"

i saw the special billy utube too and it really did bring a lump to my throat....but tonight ive logged on and seen a thread to which billys mum is laughing about a dwarf thread well.... my daughter has a dwarfism shes is 17 and at art school ive encouraged her my whole life to be independent and to face the world head on no matter what. she has long brown hair and big brown eyes and very pretty, always has a smile on her face ..she depends on me for personal things but i dont care cos she my special daughter and id go to timbuktwo for her , shes polite friendly and has so many friends but there is still the small minority of small minded people out there who often bring her down with there jokes and offensive manners ...sorry if u think im over reacting but it really upset me to see that people were laughing at other peoples disabilitys ...sorry if u think im being dramatic but im her mum xxxx

i can quite understand that michelle , but i am sure no badness or hurt was intended, just a bit of thoughtlessness that's all , they will be so upset when they realise what has happened . these special children are just that "very special ".
please accept that no one meant to hurt you or your daughter

stella xxxx

oh i didnt want no ill feeling after all it was a joke thread but still i was upset @ seeing people laffing and making jokes...just wanted to shout out that it did upset me thats all and stella thanx for your kind words x

it's ok michelle , you are quite right to feel for you your daughter and others in her situation.

stella xx

Michelle it wouldnt have been meant to cause upset!!!!...Rachelxx

skeggy im sure it wouldnt of been meant that way but when i was looking at the special billy u tube ...i called my daughter in and we both had tears in our eyes watching it ...it just hurt me when i logged on and saw that thread tonight...im sorry xx
