ok i have talked about people thinking its ok for them to talk to people anyhow they want to. and this means crussing people out. and as soon as someone get upset they want to cry and complain.
i have a nephew who is like this. and my wife parens told her that he's sensitive and i guess they think it's make it alright for him to do this, and i should get along with him.
i told my wife and her parnets i have no problmes getting along with anyone but i refuse to allow a 21 yr old, even though he have cp and he's more like a 16 yr old to talk to me anyway he wants and be nice to him or help him.
do you know anyone who claims they are sensitive and think this is a reason to treat and talk to others as they want ?

You know, I just don't understand some parents. I taught a CP student for years and he was the most polite student I had, with a Yes Ma'am to boot! I think it's all on the parenting and despite being special needs or not he can speak politely with others. They are doing him a terrible disservice by not teaching him etiquette. Sooner or later he'll meet someone who won't put up with his attitude.

I agree with you anora, every single things you done in this would has a value, may this time for him he or she ok, but the come they realize that every person needs to be sensitive the fellings of other.

he's 21. he knows better. he talk this way to everyone when he feel like it. i wouldn't care if he 12 or younger. he used to do this when he was younger when he called here. so i used to hang up on him.
kids or adult it is uncall for

I do not think it is ok for people to speak to others any way they want. This is a choice. Not a case of being sensitive or not. People have allowed the behavior so the behavior continues. I would let the young man know that if he wants to talk to me, he will have to do it properly and with respect. Cursing is not a good form of communication. He needs to know there are boundaries. Even if others tolerate this behavior, you do not need to tolerate it.

i have told him time and time again. if he want me to respect him, he need to show me more respect. i am one those uncles who will go out of the way to help any of my nephews or neices.
in which i used to take him to work before and pick him up. gone way pass the duties of being an uncle.
but he get this from his both parents, dad and mom are the same way. even his sister do it. but yeah people make excuses after excuses up for him this is why he cant get a job or hold a job.
but its sad, i told him i refuse to help him out until he learn to respect me,

Hi, syankee525. That is how some people are. I remember telling my mother-in-law off about the way that she was treating me. I told her that just because she was really sick and all, that does not give her the right to say anything and whatever she wants to say to me. I told her that being sick does not excuse her from mistreating others. She is still held accountable to others as well.

Um... see I have to special needs kids and I don't allow them to be any more impolite then my other kids. I don't care how much younger then their age they are. At 16 there should be a certain respect, too. Come on! It's not helping him by letting him get away with it.

I think this kind of attitude is not a friendly one, becuase mostly they can hert people around him, but its ok no matter how she or he they have here fredom to that, becuase each one of us has unique, no one theysame with others.
