Today, I was playing in a basketball game and blocked this kid's shot. I was really pumped up about it until I realized the kid had cerebral palsy and the coach put him on the team because he really wanted to be on at least one team in his life. FML

I don't think you should feel bad. I'd be pretty upset if I had a disability and everyone played easy on me. That would just be humiliating!

You shouldn't feel bad, you didn't know and I don't see how YDI at all. Plus, the kid was probably happy everyone wasn't just going to let him do whatever.

You got shitty luck. I mean, if I packed some kids shot, I'd be celebrating too. At least you treated him like he was normal. Don't deserve this at all D:

sucks for him, but the coach should have told you. no way for you to know, dont feel bad

awwww, that's horrible. don't feel bad though, you didn't know!

How did you not notice he had paulsy?

You don't deserve it, unlike the ratings on this site. How were you to know? Don't feel bad.

#23, either that came out horribly wrong or you are an ass.

honestly I don't agree with those people who go suuuper easey obdusabked people, if I was disabled and EVERY tine a played baseball at gym I hit a home run I'd feel totaly humiliated!!! not meaning that u should go super hard but just average so u feel like a normal human being

That must suck so bad. If they want to be treated with respect putting them on a team isn't going to help it's just going to get more people laughing at them. I would haha.

no you should not treat the cerb palsy kid the same. Nobody else treats disabled people the same. We have handicapped parking, they get first in line at the amusement park even though they rest of us have to stand for 3 hours in the scorching heat to ride on some rollercoaster for 5 minutes, they get better benefits, etc etc. I want to park in front of the store knowing I have to buy a shitload of crap and dont feel like lugging it 5 miles down the parking lot to get back to my car in the rain. Sad thing is, if you're fat enough you can get a handicapped permit, how ******* ridiculous is that?

YDI because you can completely tell when someone has cerebral palsy. They look and act different from normal people. If you couldn't tell that this kid was disabled until after you blocked the shot then you must be retarded yourself.
