New technical term to be introduced: "TS Plus"
Anonymous lo14
It is proposed that a new term be used in the Tourettes area for
children having Tourettes PLUS some a certain common sort of additional
problem (thus: "TS Plus"). This term shall be used to refer to
children with Tourette's who have depression problems or lack of
identity and/or self-esteem and lack of self acceptance *due to*
problems with the parenting they have received. Let me be yet more
specific about the language usage proposed.:
It is thought that Tourettes children can easily and "naturally" have an
image problem, that is surely made more intense and stressful by an
intrusive parent (or parents) or by parent(s) showing neurotic or
complusive or perfectionistic tendencies, esp. in irrational ways
(either with themselves or in dealings with others). It is so likely
that this significantly affects the manifestation and course of the
disorder that special cases of children conforming to the description
*and* with parents conforming to the specific description be designiated
Tourettes Syndrome Plus (or TS Plus) for short.
It s thought that once this term "TS Plus" gets into the research
literature a meaningful and important subgroup of children with
Tourettes will have been better identified. I would appreciate all help
in carrying this dialog forward to further the better identification of
these children and in putting more focus on them and what will help this
important and precious subgroup of children. Thank you. It will also
lead to better help for the parents of these children. I would
appreciate this idea being shared with other newsgroups you may know of
and mailing lists. Thank you.

to those of you who know him, but (are you listening Brad?) NOT so funny to
new parents who might take it seriously. I don't know as much about you as
the rest, but methinks you need to grow up a little and consider the
emotions, feelings, heartaches, and hopes of others reading this newsgroup.
Ya know what they say, comedy at the expense of hurting others is NEVER
funny. You need to get out more, buddy. In the real world.

I'm pretty much a newbie, too - and I'm slowly learning about Brad & his sock
puppets - who obviously have been clogged in the lint trap too long . I was
getting pretty worked up about that post - thank God that BB2 is on puppet
alert. But, could some of you old hands give us a little background on the
meanie? Enough to perhaps recognise him, so that the rest of us could join the
patrol? Thanks in advance.

There's a whole web site about him that can explain better than any of us.
Unfortunately, I don't have the address. Anyone???

Hi Brad...er...I mean..."Nobody"! (still searching for YOUR identity, I see...)
>and/or self-esteem and lack of self acceptance *due to*
>problems with the parenting they have received.
Hmmm...a parenting problem...can you share with us a little more about YOUR
parents...

You don't say! An image problem, eh? Would you compare this to, say...sort of
like looking in YOUR mirror and seeing a "sock" staring back at you...?
>that is surely made more intense and stressful by an

You poor man! What you must have endured...

(just a slight correction here, folks...I believe that last line should read:
"...Brad Jessnes Plus (or BJ Plus) for short.")

No problem! <lifting the lid of the trash can> More than happy to help!

LOL! Yes, THAT's what Brad does! Perhaps you were wondering why Leslie
asked us to watch out for him? LOL
Hey Brad, cut it out. We're all very sorry about your penis, but that's
no excuse for this behaviour.

When a person posts messages from two or more email addresses in an
attempt to make people believe he is two or more people, these email
addresses are called sock puppets.
AIUI, Brad Jesness has posted from over 400 email addresses, which makes
him a major league puppeteer.

And we don't want to give out all the clues. Though I will say, he is
stupid enough not to be able to use them.
And, sorry I missed this one. Monday was the last time I looked in....

Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human
beings infinite distances continue to exist, a wonderful living side by
side can grow up, if they succeed in loving the distance between them
which makes it possible for each to see each other whole against the
sky.
