Sadora---When my family lived in Conn;we lived in an appt.Down
stairs;was a woman,man&3kids.The oldest boy was epileptic(sp?)
He was a really nice kid;altho;somewhat shy.I thought that the guy was the father.It turned out that she was the mother and he
was a boyfriend!I didn't like how they were treated but she LET
him treat them that way.To punish the older boy;he would;with-
hold his epilepsy medicine from him and then slap him around when;he;had a fit.One night;you could hear the slaps;thru the floor.I couldn't take hearing him abused anymore!I;went down-
stairs,knocked on the door,and when he awnsered;I told him that
if I heard another slap;he would hear 2bangs.1:Me hitting;his head.2:Him hitting the floor.I didn't hear anymore slaps;but often
wondered after;what else he did to him;silently.In a situation;like
that;you just can't win against your neighbors!It's hard to believe;that there are people like that in this world! Irish
