Hiya, I just had a thought earlier today while in the shower -- was thinking of a new topic to bring up in here...one came to mind. This one -- has anyone remember having done something extremely stupid and potientially dangerous to ourselves and other people?
As for me -- I have 2.
1) I was about 7 years old and attending a deaf program at a public school. Each morning, I'd catch the yellow bus (mini one) along with my sister. There were like maybe 3 or 4 other kids with physical and mental disabilities. One specificially, was Huey, I remember his name...strange name, but that boy was profoundly intellectually disabled and nearly blind and deaf...always slapped his face with both hands and screammmmmmmmmmmmmmmm at the top of his lungs for little reasons or none.
One day, I got fed up with his screaming and slapping -- fished out this metal compass that you use a pencil to make a circle, you know what I'm talking about? Anyway, I turned the compass and had the sharp end out away from me...leant over and stabbed the boy in the leg! I shocked myself that I'd do something like that. *SMH*
2) I was working at a state hospital with deaf intellectually disabled people in an Unit -- one day, a co-worker and myself got assigned to do a community access session with 6 clients. We asked who'd want to go and wait at the door for us staff to open the door, etc. We walked up the hills near the horses paddock...Veronica, my co-worker at the time, pulled out a joint from her pocket and we shared a few puffs of weed -- Vera and I noticed one client staring at us, smoking. She signed for 'cigarette' (she smokes sometimes). Vera and I thought why not give the client a puff of the joint! Heheheh...boy, we were naughty! The client was fine, she was happy all afternoon until she came back down, back to her normal and angry self. :roll:
So...there! I've shared mine....anyone?
