This is my down syndrome brother-in-law (the Retarded Policeman on youtube) breaking down a cardboard box for us at the shop.

It's always fun to watch him preform some of his many duties! ;)

Happiness is a job well done!

My wife has worked with the special needs for the last 25+ years so our life has always included special adults and children and we wouldn't have it any other way.

In my younger days I taught a Red Cross Water Safety class called adapted aquatics to increase personal safety awareness among the special needs population with an emphasis on such things as if you fall in the water, try to stand up, etc..

Loved the one on one time with that group and my daughters always helped.  I am proud to say my youngest daughter chose to become a special needs teacher partially because of her exposure to the "special people" while she was growing up.

We all have special gifts, some gifts just come with a different wrapper.....

Props to you and your daughter Greg. I was a teacher in a different lifetime, the paperwork and politics drove me out. Takes a special person to deal with the day to day in those kinds of classrooms then deal with all the crap on the back side

At the grade school my kids went to, they had a class of "severe and profound" students. All wheelchair bound, unable to feed themselves, or speak. I am so proud of all three of my kids, who on their own, volunteered their time before and after school, and their recess time to work with these kids. One of my sons won an award given by a local news station, given to nine people each year. The "Nine Who Care" award. He was eleven at the time and nobody under 20 had ever won it. He gave so much of his time and compassion to these kids, who in turn gave him more than anyone can imagine. Sorry for the rambling, but pride is strong.

Kev, hats off to you for giving your brother a place to work and feel like part of the team.  I know it's probably not always easy, but I'm sure it means a LOT to him and your family.

LOL... you have no clue.

"Don't just sit there with the water running Josh"  "oh ok"... continues to sit there and let the water run.  Go over and turn it off "Oh, ok", 2 mins later turns it back on and doesn't turn it off again. *face palm*

Took us like 3 days to get him to change his process of how he cleaned the squeegees and flood bars. LOL

He's so OCD about some things it's hilariously frustrating.

But in reality, as you can see, he's hilarious.  He hams up half of this stuff.  Though I do have security footage of him breaking down the first box and it wasn't much better.  We think it was just him entertaining himself.

Don't think for a second that he's stupid... that little f*cker is very quick witted!

Finally got a chance to watch; that's great, sheer grit and determination, and I think, having some fun.

Yes, we've won our share of awards, and yes, I've tested stuff and read the scientific papers, but ultimately take everything I say with more than just a grain of salt! So if you are looking for trouble, just do as I say or even better, do something I said years ago!
