Connie just put it off that the guy was a complete idiot.He really had some nerve.Lucky I wasn`t in ear shot because I would have told the guy to stick it where the sun don`t shine.Just keep doing what your doing and let your son have his fun with the music.

OK. That was confusing.

When my beautiful daughter-in-law was carrying her second child, she was told that there may be a problem with the fetus. I asked my son what they were going to do and I will never forget his answer -

"Well, what do you think we will do? It's not a fish, you can't throw it back if you don't like it."

That child is now 16, is perfectly normal and is just beautiful.

Everyone that has a heart enjoys seeing your son so enjoy the music and entertainers. And the many times I have seen him there, all of the entertainers seem to enjoy him right there where they can sing to him from time to time. Such an honor and thrill for him.
Keep it up girlfriend.

Someone forgot this is the "friendliest hometown" geared towards enhancing happier, healthier and independent living. I applaud you for recognizing and honoring your adult son's interest in music and letting him thrive with a disability vs being confined to his parents immediate proximity 24/7. You are absolutely correct in placing his wheelchair near the stage where he can see without risk of others blocking his view either. Wheelchair accessible seating is usually available closet to the stage.
I hope this unfortunate incident will not overshadow the nights/years of wonderful memories your family.
