I just wanted to make sure you understood what I said. Sometimes we tend to glance over a post and think we are a 1000 word per minute readers Oh Boy! I'm guilty of that one way too often. I'll take better care in future posts.

LOL, get in line right behind me.

About your post (the one I messed up on), I agree with what you said. A good friend of mine teaches a class of special needs children in a school near Dallas.

Most get the opportunity to interact with other children (non-special needs) at various times. She tells me that these special needs children seem to "brighten up" when they attend classes with "normal children". In turn, the "normal" children are accommodating and thoughtful without being forced to do so.
Not to sound PC, but I am not trying to be offensive when I say "normal children", I'm just not sure how else to put it.
