...recent episode, seeing the Glee kids' insensitivity to the challenges faced by their disabled friend, Mr. Schuester ordered all of them to spend three hours a day in a wheelchair and learn for themselves what it was like to walk in their friend's shoes--or roll in his chair. A second subplot explored the love and tension between a flamboyantly gay kid and his devoted, conflicted dad. A third forced us to revisit the judgment we'd reached about the show's most gleefully conniving character, cheerleading coach Sue Sylvester, who has all the charm and subtlety...

They are too heavily invested in him to cut him loose...
Kudos and thank you from a mom who has let her children bike to the convenience store, walk along a country road to find a lost phone, figure out public transit to a city high school and study and volunteer abroad. I'm still not ready to hear what they did when we weren't looking ... but I do know there are no perfect kids or perfect parents. Every day you say a little prayer...
