...sister had the mentality of a 9-month-old, although her body continued to mature. When the decision was made to place her in a facility, it was only because she was almost as tall as my mother and we were no longer able to lift her and provide her with the care she needed. If the options available to Ashley's parents had been available to us in the early 1980s, we would have done the same thing. She might still be alive today had we been able to care for her at home. Please do not condemn Ashley...
...Family members of the RAF's 34 victims, including Schleyer's widow, have joined conservative politicians in urging the President to reject Klar's application. Some want Mohnhaupt kept in jail, too. Markus Söder, general secretary of the Christian Social Union, the Bavarian sister party to Angela Merkel's ruling Christian Democrats, said that releasing the prisoners would be a "slap in the face" for the victims and their relatives. A recent poll conducted by the Bonn-based firm Omniquest found 65% of Germans against Klar being granted early parole; the proportion rose to 73% among Germans aged...
...Before the Edwards campaign recruited Marcotte, it found another biting left-wing feminist voice in blogger Melissa McEwan of Shakespeare's Sister.

...Since my sister has Down syndrome, I have the privilege of being surrounded by people with developmental disabilities. I strongly oppose the idea of adapting a child to the environment by using radical (what I would call Peter Pan) measures. I think that Ashley's parents are emotionally unprepared and haven't realized that it is they who ought to "reshape" and adjust to the needs of their child since they have the physical and mental ability to do so.
