I probably would never have realized that twisting soulders would be such a great idea for teaching someone, just knowing this means if when I run the big brothers event at our field next year i will get him or her to fly!
I know this is a bad idea to get into this but, you said
ORIGINAL: Look, it's really simple. Those of us with 'special needs' don't need to be highlighted or embelished upon. We are who we are and frankly, it's no different from anyone else who needs practice to master a skill.
It's just not very nice to be reminded that you are somehow 'less' than your friends and colleuges.
Now, leave it alone.
and then continue to list your friends with needs! this thread isn't meant to be used to highlight those with needs but used to encourage those unfamiler with those with special needs to help make their lives more comfortable and accepted. We all have or know someone that needs help. I know plenty of people with needs and 1 is in my family, it is hard for me on a mental level dealing with this, and for my mom.
Wouldn't it be nice to try something new and know you are in a hobby with people who care and will go the extra mile to help you and feel a part of something big.
Please this hobby is about helping others not telling people that they should not feel good about helping someone that needs help that some are not used to giving. I am 17 and I understand the concept that this hobby is as much about helping others in any way you can as well rcing, its not hard and another day is another chance to make someones day and tell others what you learned.
