Hang in there Erin. I'm having one of those weeks where I feel like it would be better to give up too. I keep wondering why I bother putting in so much effort and get so little return and my most recent attack has really set me back.

Being a mom myself I would have had no problem yelling at the kid and physically removing him from my device. And as a mom I apologize for that child's mother's lack of actual parenting. When I was walking my son to class one day I had a kid come up behind me, put his hands on each butt check and try to push me faster through the doorway and when he could finally get around me he kicked my cane and I nearly fell. I'll just say the school secretary came out of the office and supported me in my attempt to "educate" him on how to treat people with disabilities.
