The beginning is quite inspiring and Jamie made me smile. I'm aware that raising a disabled child is a huge challenge, but shouldn't his 'misdeeds' be private? For any child being paraded in public with what they've done wrong is quite embarrassing, showing of a disabled child like that is quite disrespectful to him.
It is great to give families with disabled children a platform to share their stories, and I would have loved to give it my vote. But the "naughty step" just made me cringe. I'm not commenting on parenting methods here, but about being paraded in public with them.
