Trying To Live With PDA.

Pathological Demand Avoidance.
Three letters, three words many many headaches.

My partners son suffers from the syndrome.
With PDA it is not just the child who suffers.

I witness with incredulity the verbal and sometimes violent abuse my partner puts up with.
The boy has a vocabulary far greater than anyone i have ever met - he is 13.
Sadly that is too often used to belittle, scorn and insult others - mostly the mother, again.

He has never gone to school - my partner has taught him to an incredible level.
A head full of information and facts he retains courtesy of a photographic memory - i believe.
Let down by so called experts in the mental health field - she has soldiered on.

Her patience with her sons high levels of anxiety and need to control all situations is inspiring.
She has given up her own life for his.
I acknowledge you, lady.

And thank god for books and lego.

ISIS IS And Saudi Arabia.

Although the overwhelming majority of the American public will never look any closer than a variant of the cleverly crafted description provided above, those that do pay some modicum of attention to current events will discover that, according to the mainstream media and Western governments, the leader of ISIS is none other than Abdullah al-Rashid al-Baghdadi, the alleged creator of al-Qaeda in Iraq.

However, upon further study, it is revealed that the true leader is not Baghdadi at all. Indeed, the leader is not even an Iraqi.

The commander of ISIS is none other than Saudi Prince Abdul Rachman al-Faisal, the brother of Prince Saud al-Faisal and Prince Turki al-Faisal.

Of course, information regarding Faisal’s control over ISIS has been known for some time, yet the Western media has conveniently neglected to report on it.

In a 2007 article published by Reuters entitled “Senior Qaeda Figure In Iraq A Myth: U.S. Military,” Dean Yates writes that a senior al-Qaeda operative informed U.S. Military interrogators that the Islamic State of Iraq was nothing more than a front for another organization and that its leader, Abdullah al-Rashid al-Baghdadi was himself a fictional person.

In fact, Brigadier General Kevin Bergner told a news conference that Baghdadi did not exist and that “he” was merely an attempt to put an Iraqi face on what was a “foreign-driven network.”
