  • Hey man, I know it's not fair, but don't take it out on somebody else. That car she rides takes her to school (I assume) because I noticed her mother didn't get into the car.

    You say you have disabled child? You should understand that the moaning is that little girl's only way of communicating.

    My mother cannot work for various reasons and we get support through the goverment, for a while I did not qualify for services because I did not qualify, it took 3 times but now we have services.

  • really, is she cp girl ?

    she is so pretty !

    amazing baby girl !

  • were these parents first cousins because i keep getting treated like im doing something wrong when i am having a baby .... apparently first cousins have disabled babies so i am assuming this woman was first cousin to her husband

  • These are real realistic feelings from parents with disabled child. It is always nice to know that you are not the only one facing the same issue.

  • @xXstarheartsXx i agree!!!!

  • contact a family have never ever done anything foir my son and me

    useless pathetic charity

  • I don't think the mother is being ungrateful. I think she's speaking from a realistic viewpoint, and voicing feelings that many parents of disabled children probably have but are afraid to say out loud for fear of being judged for 'not loving' their child just because they're not 'normal.' Of course she loves Georgia; you can tell Georgia is very well cared for.

  • does her mother even love her?!

  • She should be grateful for her daughter and stop greiving becouse she wants a 'normal' daughter. She is a snob and should get over herself ffs.

    She has a beutiful daughter and she should cherish her and also the child would be able to sense that her mum hates the way she is.

    I know about children who can't speak but her moaning was due to her almost ripping her leg off.

  • These are the people who get help she lives in a mansion.

    Try living in a first floor flat with a child in a wheelchair and being turned down for any help. Her moaning is pathetic, she has even got a car and not everyone has got that.

    she's well off, try being poor with a disabled child and watching idiots like her getting all the help
