Continuing my brief series on the Nova Scotia man declared legally incompetent by his parents, I found a heartbreaking CBC radio interview with his mother.
The mother claims her son’s functional skills are at the level of a 10 or 12 year-old, which is consistent with his self-reported IQ score (on The Fifth Estate) of 69. Adult mental age is 16+ so an adult with the mind of an 11-year-old would be developing at 69% (11/16) of the normal rate (the age ratio method works well from IQ 70 to 130, but begins giving absurd results beyond those limits).
The interviewer plays the audio of the son making his case, and many people across the province are rallying behind the son, and feel, based on listening to his interviews, that he is competent enough to live independently.
The mother explains that his disabilities are very complex, and people shouldn’t jump to the conclusion that he’s fine, just because he seems fine. This shows that a complex involved in-depth IQ test like the Wechsler (assuming the son took that) can detect disabilities that can not be observed from subjective impressions.
The interviewer argues that he held down jobs, has a girlfriend, and even has kids, but the mother counters that only one of his kids (with more than one female) has been confirmed to be his. The others are question marks. Further, when he worked, the mother claims the money was not even going to him, but to a Third Party.
The mother explains that it’s no longer the 1970s, when it was safe for someone like her son to be integrated into the community. Today there are too many people who will exploit someone like him.
The son’s lawyer also gave an interview with CBC Radio that I listened to.
Meanwhile I found another CBC interview with the son himself, who is heartened by all the support he’s been getting from the public. He seems to show a large vocabulary when it comes to words related to his specific case, making reference to “cognitive assessment” and “archaic law”. The only signs of disability is that he speaks a bit slowly and differently and struggles twice to pronounce the word “aspect”.
It’s a tricky situation because I think his parents are very good people who mean well, but at the same time, when they assume all his “friends” are just exploiting him, it can be quite condescending.
I’m reminded of when I was in the 10th grade, a popular classmate and I went to a “bush bash” on Friday night, and I kindly offered to bring a bottle of vodka that I had surreptitiously obtained. The following Monday, another popular classmate took me aside and said “don’t let people use you like that.” Although this student meant well, I was offended that he assumed I was just being used for my bottle of vodka and couldn’t possibly have been invited to the elite bush bash on my merits.
Sometimes it can be hard to help someone without subtly insulting them in the process, making it hard for the help to be accepted. I think that’s part of the dynamic here.
oprah IS satan.
that’s why peepee rubs herself to orgasm whilst watching her.
If you want to keep talking about Oprah, you should place the comment in an appropriate post:

Unlike many bloggers, I deliberately never close the comment section on any topic, so any discussion can be reactivated at any time, and your comment will appear on the top of the commentroll, even if you’re commenting on a post from years ago.
But I don’t want every post spammed with Oprah comments, especially not before the subject matter of the post is addressed.
i have a black character too.
he claims to have an IQ of 160.
i call him “Reggie”…
it’s amazing/astounding/un-believable how prescient hitch was:
Hitchens lost some credibility when he
became a neocon
i doubt he even said the above peepee.
i was quoting santa claus quoting hitch.
but you are correct dame/my lady…

once hitch hitched his wagon to america he became…
boring and ridiculous.
that he even went so far as to claim he was jewish was the…
“dead giveaway”…
if this is atheism…count me out.
he was even bested once in his “pilgrimage” against christianity.
the knight who knocked him off his horse was…
of course…
an RC priest…
this SPANIARD…of a sort…
Monsignor Lorenzo Albacete…
…
which reminds me…
there are these indians with my surname…
and why?
well there was a bishop in india…a EUROPEAN/WHITE bishop…of the same name.
did the bishop quit and start fucking the native ladies?
…
here’s the deal that darwin butt licker peepee will NEVER get…
THE ROMAN EMPIRE DIDN’T DIE WITH AUGUSTULUS.
NO!
IT’S BEEN MORE THAN 2000 YEARS OF ALMOST UN-OPPOSED, ALMOST TOTAL…
ROMAN SUPREMACY.
…thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
THE CURRENT ROMAN EMPEROR IS NAMED…
FRANCIS…
AND HE’S AN ITALIAN…
…
SUCH CLEVER FUCKS THESE ROMANS…
The entire Mediterranean from its Roman legacy was that of superiority and nobility.
Islam was more of a civilization than Nordicism.
Maimonides was not a high IQ Ashkenazi New Yorker, but a Spanish Sephardic.
Benjamin Cardozo, the only well groomed, normal, high profile American Jew, was of Sephardic Spain, not your Goldstein of Nuremberg.
JS brings up a problem for the HBD weltanschauung…
or rather he ridicules it…
namely…
why is it that the outstanding jews of more than a century ago are all NOT ashkenazi?
hmmm.
cockring and shoe should definitely be joined together in a human centipede.
why is it that the outstanding jews of more than a century ago are all NOT ashkenazi?
If that’s true, that’s a strange anomaly which does indeed challenge the HBD explanation for Ashkenazim IQ
it’s funny how inbred hicks from the former CSA will still say…
“the south shall rise again.”
as if it hadn’t risen already.
as if it hasn’t been in the ascend(e/a)ncy since the Civil Rights Act was signed.
as if the even more south had ever been drowned in the north atlantic like the Titanic
whatever fucktards.
after we’re all dead and every last child has been molestered…
after the jewish AMPAS nods to the the anti-RC movie of the year…
whatever…
you win skirmish after skirmish…
…battle after battle…
but you lose…
the war.
why is this man smiling?
he knows.

STILL WAITING.
surely peepee recognizes the actor AND the movie…
the horror movie!
the horror…
the horror…
no?
hint:
he’s an irishman…like this guy, the good looking one:

Jack Nicholson in The Shining.
that’s a common misconception.
Who the hell is it then? Nicholson is Irish, and he looked like that in The Shining. There was even a scene where he chases his son through the snow.
autism is hilarious.
but i have a cure:

So it is Nicholson! Thanks for coming out.
but i have a cure
It didn’t work for you.
There are other indications that he’s at least -1SD. For example, he says that he can build a campfire and prepare his own meals, as though that proves his self-sufficiency. He doesn’t say that he has any technical skills, like auto mechanic skills.
The fact that he would brag about building a campfire shows that he’s a little slow.
