I loved the way the humor works. I too take care of the Mental retardation and mental illness patients in the private home. I had a young adult that was blind, non-verbal for any trained language, he did not like anyone to break into his time with mom. We would only be allowed meetings when she was home and there he is in the middle of the floor ranting, biting, go hug someone and clamp down on a boob and would not let up, all the person could do was please get him off, they try to pull, she cries do not pull, I repeat do not pull. Mom got up and put her fingers on the hinges of his jaw to make him open his mouth, he finally did after about 5 minutes. We could not touch him or it would be physical abuse to pry his jaw open. Who got abused? I used to get this magazine in the paper form and somehow I missed this on-line. I loved the way the humor works.
