I know today is almost over, but this campaign is important to me. I've mentioned it on this blog before, you may have had me say something in person to you. Yes, I am talking about the R-word again.
I am tolerant of the word if it is used in ignorance, but once I've explained that the word is hurtful I EXPECT friends and family to remove it from their vocabulary.
I found this post today from a mom who decided to battle the r-word on twitter. While I'm not surprised about the responses she got, I am sad. So for those who have made a change in the words you choose because of Claire, THANK YOU!
