A couple of months ago, I made an offer to help someone. I tend to have a soft spot for kids and young adults with special needs, and this family has a daughter, a young adult with developmental disabilities. Apparently she has some level of communication issues, although I have no real idea of what that level of ability is. I sent this family a series of private messages offering the advice and assistance of my wife, a highly skilled and experienced professional in the field of speech and language development. I offered my phone number to this family, never receiving a reply. Only when I sent a PM asking if this young ladies abilities would include handling a touch screen device like an iPad, among other skills, did I get a reply, and apparently I had offered to send them a $400 device loaded with appropriate software. Last night I got a rather pissy PM about how I had ruined their daughters Christmas, which by my calendar is still 9 days away. Apparently the fact that their daughter likes Disney princesses is enough information to work up a communication device from scratch for a person that you have never spoken with, as apparently they have better things to do with their time besides picking up a phone. I am so sick of some people's Holy Entitlement, and this has soured my Christmas spirit worse then a glass of month old eggnog.
On the bright side, I hear they won the lottery.
