Good for you constantdreamer, to reach out to the public to raise awareness of bp kids. And thank you for trusting us with the opportunity to provide editorial feedback.

The three ladies above amaze me, make me want to get back into writing again. Even make the idea of writing courses interesting to me.

My basic idea is that, if I wanted to get a message across to the ignorant masses who judge our beautiful bp kids. I'd say appeal to their emotions, tell it as a story, "you're trip to the grocery store" (but a catchier title or posed as a question)

tell them about your skill/experience as a parent, e.g. you know how to discipline you're children, but each child is unique and requires a different style, etc.

tell more about this unique child and his positive qualities, how he draws or paints, or how many extra hugs he needs compared to the other children (this is what my bp son is like)

tell some specific story about what / how the other children react do say when they see the harsh glares of the onlookers (i know this one too well )

again, thanks for sharing, and please keep us posted on how it's going.
