This is so true... I still believe in God, but I really can't stand the sentiment that "God had a plan". Not just in regards to raising exceptional children, but I heard it used in my family when someone had recently died, leaving a 6 yr old child without a dad. "God must have wanted him." that sounds like BS to me. Because, if God wants what is best for us, surely having such a wonderful man for a father is what was best for his daughter? It doesn't make sense why God would take someone good away from their family when they are needed here on earth, especially when you have abusive alcoholics like my father still hanging around.
I'll agree that it is unfortunate when someone dies young. I'll agree that God gives us what we can handle, but I always say that if God gives us only what he thinks we can handle, then he sure has a high opinion of me. :lol: Nice to know someone does.

I would rather hear someone say, "I'm sorry for your loss. Let me know if there is anything I can do to help you through this difficult time." than to hear "it is God's will." We say things like that because we don't know what to say. We don't know how to process our grief, or how to console others. Big lesson: sometimes the right thing to say at the time is "You're not alone. We understand what you are going through." Knowing that someone else has felt the same emotions you are feeling helps more than religious platitudes. I'd rather someone say in a nicer way that "Gee, this really stinks. You're right; it is unfair."

Kudos to people like Bonny who have crap thrown at them but brush it off and keep going. People who deal with life's curveballs instead of moaning all the time "Why me?" Everyone feels that way sometimes, but there is a time for self-pity and a time for action. For those who have autistic children, for example, there just isn't a lot of time in between. Someone else needs you, so you do what you can.

I know what you mean.. when Maggie was born and we athought she would not make it soo many people said, "well, its for the best.. she will be in a better place"..and I am a religious person and believes God has reasons for allbut I would get so mad because.. if it is for the best she would be with me in a better place with me.. at home..so I just let people talk and say whatever.. and I have heard God only gives us what we can handle too... and let me tell you...He must think I am AMAZING:lol: ...its a hard job to do but you do it and you dont feel sorry for yourself its just second nature.. you do it because its what you know and what you want... Its LOVE....:)
