Sorry to offend, but that's the word the article uses.
Story is about a mother who coached her children to act "ret*d", so as to collect benefit money.
here's the link:

Way to go Mom ! ! The authorities, God bless 'um, got suspicious. But not before thousands of dollars were given to the Mom.

Good Morning Prof_Pretorius

The worst are the parents who teach their children to lie their way through school, telling them what they want to hear, so they are popular. Then they get jobs! Employers lose billions when they are tricked into hireing these so called "workers!"

Four year olds manipulated the all knowing, all seeing , godlike, Mental Health Profession, for twenty years?

The Infaliable, who can declare your passport too life invalid, who have had people locked up for twenty years because their sister said they were strange, and she did not want to share their mutual inheritance?

At the least, a half dozen highly qualified medical professionals signed off on the Social Security paper work, more likely twenty-five. I think they should also get to sue the children.

How dare a defective contest a traffic ticket, and win! They have to be made to pay! Any sucess in life is forbidden to the defective. When a police officer lies, it is an offical lie. Going to those liberal Judges, DA, Grand Jury, and citeing that namby pamby Law, offends the football team, uh, Police. They have access to all records, and like teachers, mental health Professionals, that will get you a report in the secret record.

No ret*d is getting away with it around here, the Police had to look back twenty years, but they did, the arm of the law is long, as are other members. Make the town enforcer look bad in public, your whole family is going to pay!

Another morning of thought crime, now cyber crime, carrying a concealed and unregistered opinion, and coffee.

what an a**hole. this woman is ret*d. and useless. i hope she rots in the slammer. her children (adults now) are the spawn of such degenerate genes, they're lucky if they figure out a way to gain some integrity/self respect. as far as she's concerned. who cares. she stole almost $300,000, in taxpayers hard earned money. i hope she never gets a second chance. now, she can go to prison, and work for free.

Mostly, I am wondering why "slouching" is considered to be a symptom of retardation. If you read the article, there is a sentence that says the son acted ret*d...picking his face, SLOUCHING, and appearing uncommunicative...


People slouch all the time.

If they'd just imitated their mother noone would've ever suspected a thing.

They call those benefits "crazy checks," and that kind of behavior is disgusting.

That's horrible. What a lesson to teach the kids huh?

Hopefully, after seeing their mom jailed, they'll get the idea. But then, it might already be too late. And the lesson they learn is 'don't get caught'.


I swear, people who honestly need the support will refuse it. Accept monetary aid and you're a no good parasite. And then you've got people like this that are abusive.


I can't help but think that there is probably better opinion for people like this than their is for the disabled. Lying seems to have a fair amount of social acceptance.

It seems like we're getting some spectacularly bad examples of parenting in the news lately. This weekend there's some video floating around the Internet that supposedly shows a 2 and a 5 year old being taught to smoke pot. This mum, is one of the worst, teaching her kids to lie so as to get cheques from the governement. The kids will prolly grow up to be gangsters.

That's bad, and sad (for the kids).
