judge not...

who is able to truly say that they are not judgemental? i doubt anyone can really look into their soul and not feel one way or another about a situation or person or whathaveyou.

but when is it ok--truly justifiable--to judge aloud. like, let your particular feelings be known. to me, i say shut your fucking mouth.

case in point...
my daughter. she's hyper, she's unfocused, she floats all over the place. we know that. she's not hurting anyone. she's annoying you, maybe, but unless you are her teacher or a classmate directly harmed by her talking out of turn, shut the fuck up. especially members of our family. she is NOT docile, she never WAS docile and she never WILL be docile. no one is going to rub off on her no matter how long they hang out together. accept her. and if you are too impatient to love her for who she is, stay away. because as a mother of a child with adhd, NOTHING is more frustrating than YOU getting frustrated with her--for what? running around? making a mess while eating? in a NON-SCHOOL related setting?--and telling me she should lay off the sugar. she doesn't even consume sugar. and i'm pretty sure that the sugar thing is an old-wives tale. she is what she is. and while most people who "love" her love her for all of her flaws, those who don't just suck as people. and i hope YOU get to deal with an imperfect child and see how the judging eyes and nasty comments feel.
