Or in my case, my parents getting angry AT ME for “acting weird” when a well-meaning teacher at school thought I was on drugs and had them call my mom to pick me up for a drug test in the middle of class.
I was just anxious because they had a surprise visitor coming in to judge our work before college application season started. to this day, I still don’t know what I did or said that caused that reaction.
That’s the most ableist thing I heard parents do. Still better than my mother at every family gatgering, where she shames me for acting like a removed for “being quiet and while talking not saying anything serious.”. What the hell am i even supposed to do, only answer questions/ small talk, which I suck at (obivously)
