I'm sorry -are you referring to my comment? You're right - there is a lot of ignorance about deaf blindness and that is why there are so many comments on here slating Molly. It is my experience of MHGS (as it was at the time) that a number of pupils could not understand additional disabilities and those who had physical disabilities were bullied by the minority. Some of the comments on here, bordering on abusive, from apparently ex pupils, show that this mentality hasn't changed. It is particularly scathing towards mental and emotional health issues and I've seen plenty of comments suggesting that Molly is somehow exaggerating her feelings to gain support and publicity. I find this outrageous - how can people be so arrogant to assume they know how she is feeling? If you are referring to my comment in a negative way, I.e. I am criticising a deaf blind person's written English, no, that certainly was not my intention. I was trying to point out this person was being particularly high handed, seemingly knowing a lot about legalities, yet he/she was abusive to Molly's Mum, calling her "stupid" , yet failed to proof read his post before he hit the reply button. Surely there is irony in that. I wanted to assure you that I am the last person to be ignorant of such issues, I have personal and professional experience.

who is calling the mother 'stupid'? I don't see any comment regarding that quote. seriously this whole thing is off the point, judging people by their written language? I don't care about my language, but I do not appreciate all this insulting about people written language! as for Molly, sorry that you are going into depression. but I have been reading articles from all views, the ban of dog into canteen and big assembly hall were agreed with the blind association. the school had been consulting with guide dog for the blind people and blind association - it is not like the school just made up their own rules. dog not being able to enter the canteen does not restrict YOU from using the canteen with your friends. everyone I know are very upset with the fact that these campaign had to be known to the world. it is not giving justice for Molly but arguments/debate between people. this could simply be dealt with watt family, school, blind association and if desperate the court. I wonder how many of these comments are written by molly's mother and why she is not using her name!
