Why I Almost Broke Up With Shane (NOT Clickbait!) / Squirmy and Grubs

[@jamesfee6016]

Guys I hope you don't find this too weird. I found your channel on KZbin 4 days ago and I have spent many hours going through your videos. I Created my FIRST EVER KZbin Channel just so I could make comments about your stuff. I'm a 70 year old male with cerebral palsy. Your videos have been a review of the life I've lived, and the challenges I've faced, like NOTHING I have ever encountered before. I have sat here for hours shouting at the computer screen "Yes, that happens. Yes, that's how it works, Yes, I've heard that, Yes that has been thrown in my face too! BROVO Shane for telling it like IT IS, OVER AND OVER AND OVER YET AGAIN....BROVO!!!! Thank you Shane. And Hannah, thank you for showing us what TRUE LOVE REALLY IS!-- James W. Fee, Jr.

I want to defend the crying older lady. That generation was forced to discard or place children with disabilities in foster/residential homes. They were told those kids would be a burden and have no meaningful life. So when they see "normalcy" it gives them hope and love and renews them. They are just like "o my god this can happen". We are friends with an interable couple and the old ladies at church would always gush over them. And one of them told me how her brother had been put in an institution. So while it is "weird" I think for many its just the realization that they were told wrong and may have had some kind of trauma/stigma with disabilities.

You are 100 & 1 % right! Thank you for reminding everyone about that those days!

[@mannduh2430]

Yes! My grandfather has a brother with Austim who he said was in an "institution" because it is "best" for his brother. My own brother has it and our grandfather is always asking me about my brother.

Yes your right. So alot of people just dont realize that those of us that have disabilities still love, feel, hate, hold grudges or not. Pray ,laugh, everything that others do because we arent packed up and sent away.😘

It's still awkward to have a stranger cry at you in public regardless of her former preconceived notions about disability. They arent attacking her but there is no situation where that isnt weird and uncomfortable.

[@1771bubba]

I’ve been over weight almost my whole adult life. And I get the look from kids all the time. Once I was standing in line at the pharmacy. A little girl is looking me up and down. She’s probably 3 or 4. Her Mother is looking mortified because she knows what’s coming. So do I. So I’m trying to look consoling to the Mother.... it’s okay. Don’t worry about it. Then it comes. The little girl pulls on her Moms arm. She says, “Mom, that lady is so pretty!” Both me and the Moms mouths drop open. That wasn’t expected. I wanted to go buy the little girl a toy. Lol.

[@wendyfoster5579]

I have a stepson that was born with a bilateral arm deformity and a lot of people stare. My son would get really defensive for him but my stepson wasn’t bothered so I had to have a talk with my son about saving his irritation for times when Seth was upset and not making him upset when he isn’t offended. People are curious but some are rude and there is no excuse for that.

Hi. I know you commented 11 months ago.A female surfer lost her arm from a shark attack. She went back surfing. Most of the time it's adults that are ignorant as of just being rude and just not informed how to ask questions. Awhile back Mom and I were waiting in line for the bathroom in. Florida. Woman taps me on the shoulder and asked to the back of my head " What happened to you?" I turned around and said " I'm faking it!" Loud enough my Mom infants of me told me to be nice. That was about a dozen times people asked me in a matter of days. Sometimes I felt like making a great story up. Let them be inticed with the B S. , then say only kidding ! There are so many people that got happily married that don't have legs And arms. Little stumps for arm and has hands and no legs but feet all but coming out of their pelvis.

The only thing she didn't do was lead the hike which we got lost in the pouring rain for a long time. My Mom lost her eye sight when she was older and still did well. Great friend's Mom was blind ,got married, and had kids,etc. I am glad your daughter has a great Mom and I am sure knows it.

I told him I didn't think he needed another drink. He says "no I'm okay, I just fell off a truck", so I tell him I'm not going to be able to serve him. His friend then explains to me that years ago he fell off of a truck causing a brain injury and showed me the scar on his head from where they had to do surgery.

[@Sturdyman500]

My daughter married a really brilliant guy. Someone who knew them both found out they were engaged and made a comment about whether she could keep up with him. She was so offended! She's plenty intelligent but was home educated, so the person evidently thought she wasn't his equal. I told her I would have commented about him keeping up with her, if you know what's mean, lol.

[@danayager]

@@Sturdyman500 To me, that sounds like blatant ignorance on their behalf. Home education statistically produces more intelligent people in regards to a life skills and producing prodigy children. I’ve home schooled all 3 of my kids during most of their primary years (my son all the way through HS). My oldest daughter has a bachelor’s from UCI and my son was a computer science prodigy at 12 years old- building computers from scratch as well as full animation and coding websites. A general education is great but limited in scope when dealing with real world scenarios, deadlines, and problem solving. Anyway, I’m certain your daughter keeps her man engaged in great conversation and has proven to be someone he wants raising his children, right? Being that he’s brilliant and chose her for a partner says a lot. Anyone telling him that she may not be able to ‘keep up’ is basically questioning his ability to use adequate discernment in choosing a partner, therefore challenging his own intelligence.

As a retired teacher, I’ve learned that poorly behaved children mostly come from poorly behaved parents. Sometimes when you call home to tell parents the awful or mean things their child has done at school, it doesn’t take long to understand that the poor kid is just learning this from awful or mean parents. This is not always the case, but often the case. I end up feeling sorry for the kid who hardly stands a chance!

My grandaughter stood starining at the wheelchair. The woman pushed the chair next to Where we were standing and very nastily bent toward my gradaughter and not nicely said, " Rude child. Do you not know it is rude staring at people that are disabled" she scared my grandaughter and pissed me off. For one thing, my grandaughter was little more than a baby. I looked at the woman and as nice as I could I said, "She is staring at the wheelchair, Her father is paralized and this chair is nothing like the one he has. His is low to the ground and he moves it by pushing the wheels," I seen the woman could move her legs, she must have just had a medical condition that made it hard for her to walk that much, my grandaughters father was paralyzed from just above the naval. The lady just turned red and walked away. No apology. It made me furious.

[@raquellambropoulos279]

People are strange and maybe you are judging as well, you see I am DISABLED AND CAN MOVE MY LEGS BUT CAN'T WALK. So don't assume that an individual who can move their legs aren't disabled. The social security administration agrees I'm disabled. Just as you found the caregiver offensive and rude, which she was, but when you love someone who is in a wheelchair and DISABLED you become extremely sensitive to your loved ones feelings. Perhaps they had a rough day or your 3 yr old is tall and she thought she was older. Who knows but PLEASE REMEMBER SOME DISABILITES ARE NOT VISIBLE AND SOMEONE PARALYZED IS NO MORE OR LESS DESERVING OF ONES COMPASSION. ALL DISABILITIES ARE DESERVING OF KINDNESS. you are passive aggressive and It is evident in your writing.

Anyway I was in the city one day and I couldn’t find the building I needed to go for, yet another, job interview. There was a man, probably in his 50s there, walking the other way, so in passing I asked if he knew where the ANZ bank was as the bank was the bottom floor of the building. The man proceeds to drop to the ground, on one knee, I was a bit stressed at this point, thinking am I about to cop a random proposal, and he gave the directions, promptly, to my guide dog.

As someone with a chronic illness I have struggled with feelings of being unlovable. I think many of us struggle to know we are loved with all of our imperfections and we get these ideas in our heads that some qualities are less lovable than others. I think the woman in your first story may have just got a reality check that everyone deserves love and she may or may not have realized that she was incorrect about some of her internal belief systems and they have been why she was so shocked. I imagine there are things in her life that have led her (and many of us) to believe we are not good enough in life just as we are. Seeing how wrong we are about who deserves love gives us hope that we are lovable too.

Depends on the liquor laws of the area. I live in Texas, and here a minor can consume alcohol in a public setting (such as a restaurant) IF AND ONLY IF their parent is present. So if the waiter thought that Shane was Hannah's son, he would have been a) willing to get him some alcohol as long as Hannah (the supposed "parent") was present, and b) been willing to get Shane a lollipop if requested. Depending on local liquor laws, of course. Source: work at liquor store, am TABC certified

With that being said I find it sad as well as scary that people are so shallow and flawed that they feel that because Shane has different "ABILITIES" than they do that he is incapable of finding love and having someone genuinely love him for EXACTLY WHO HE IS like he loves them FOR WHO THEY ARE, please know that you are not the one with the issue AT ALL the person with that extremely flawed perception is 10000000% the problem, in which case I pray they get help and are able to change their way of thinking and seeing life! You are both truly beautiful and amazing souls, with that being said you are both helping people with open minds as well as open hearts to have the incredible opportunity to see two beautiful souls with different " ABILITIES" as well as totally different ways of living and experiencing life, be perfectly capable of falling head over heals in love, showing support to each other, loyalty, trust and respect to one another for just being who they are! I am so grateful for human beings like the two of you, because you are helping others peoples souls, minds, and their over all person to grow and learn to look beyond the physical and to find the true beauty within a person! I can not imagine the mean and awful back lash that you must receive on social media from the sad, miserable, or ignorant people sitting on their electronics passing judgement and dishing out useless, mean, and hurtful criticism! I pray that one day my 5 children are able to find a beautiful, genuine, and amazing love like the two of you have been able to find I pray for that daily! You are both truly inspirational and incredible, I am so thankful to be able to watch you both grow as individuals as well as team and a couple!!!! Thank you for all that you are doing regaurdless of all of the hateful things people say, you are both doing something truly amazing by just simply showing those with different "ABILITIES" that there is hope for them in finding someone that will love them forall that they are as an individual with no regard of what others think about it! Congrats on all of your accomplishments to the both of you, may God continue to bless you on your journey in this complicated thing we call life! Thank you for sharing all that you do on here, and PLEASE dont ever feel bad for creating boundaries and keeping somethings personal for the two of you as it is your right to do so and you have to to maintain your sanity as well as your peace of mind!!!

After I was in school for 2 months I heard everyone talking about how I was adopted (I was not) my brother went to the same school as me. I found out that my science teacher was telling her classes that I was adopted because my mom and my brother could walk. I was sooooooo heartbroken. She was not educated at all. 14 years later and I have a daughter who can also walk I tried explaining to her that my mom had complications when I was born but she STILL didn't believe me.

I think it's beautiful that she cried... some people are just more emotional and how they express their feelings. Crying is not a weakness. Just accept her... don't feel sorry for her, be grateful for peoples expressions toward you as a beautiful couple.

[@dod2304]

I don't think they were saying that crying is a weakness. It's just the attitude they seem to have, "aren't you just a SAINT for marrying this poor crippled boy". (their thoughts, not mine)It's true that people don't know what they don't know. Have never been in a situation where they learned. I tell myself that all the damn time when Hearing people are absolutely floored when they learn that there are Deaf people with PhDs! When I was told it was so "beautiful" that I had married a Deaf man, they were definitely saying that I was such an angel for "lowering myself" to be with this poor Deaf (and Dumb) man. Some people still say Deaf and Dumb! Argh! Another button of mine. A lot of us. But still some people believe that Deaf people have lower intelligence and could never get a higher education. I work at a University that graduates over a hundred Deaf students every year. I've been a Professional Interpreter since 1982. Sometimes, I admit, the ignorance gets a bit tiresome. BTW, Interpreters need a college degree and certification and sometimes licensing to practice. You can't just take one Sign Language class (usually taught by someone who is Hearing and NOT fluent) at camp and you're good to go. Interpreting between a spoken language and a visual language is 100 times more difficult than Interpreting between two spoken languages. And, American Sign Language is its own separate and unique language with its own syntax and grammar. Just wanted to share some information that I've observed most hearing people aren't aware of. So that you can also be more sensitive and educated when you meet a Deaf person! :D Thank you Hannah and Shane for helping people learn and have more open minds about people with disabilities.

[@mamas3cubs]

Kids used to point at him a lot too and it was awkward for him. I’ve watched, as he’s gotten older, how much he has become more comfortable handling those awkward moments with children. He will answer their questions. The thing that irritates me, are the adults who either ignore their children, like they didn’t just say something so rude, rather than gently correcting them and educating them. I think some folks just get used to living in their own bubble and don’t know what to say. One of the best things that has come about with time, is increased accessibility for mobility challenged people. KZbin and the internet is such a great vehicle for raising awareness.
