My brother and youngest son have Tourette’s Syndrome, both extremely intelligent, both very often ridiculed during tics. I have not been my best self at times but I’ve NEVER been embarrassed by either, only my poor actions toward people and their ignorance. Please be kind or be quiet, words can hurt.

My 8 year old daughter has tourettes syndrome and it breaks my heart when she gets made fun of. People need to educate their children to be kind to everyone. My daughter is the sweetest and most kind soul.

Teach your children to be patient and kind with students that have abnormalities.

Klover, I hope she finds a way through x both my friend's daughter's have tourettes. They are growing into beautiful, smart, strong women. With your love, your daughter will find the right people to surround herself with too.

I talked to an adult with it year's back, really nice guy, wasn't afraid to talk about it, He basically said, you feel the ticks coming, but can't stop it, so I can see how very frustrating that would be.

Zeza, my son suffers from tourettes among other things ... his tics get worse when he is anxious or under stress .

One of my friends was diagnosed with adult onset tourrettes a few years ago shortly after turning 50. It's not easy for him.

it is horrible that for as "civilized" as we humans are supposed to be we lack such common decency in our dealings with each other!

Player #10639782, it’s not socially isolating, just during tics - which come and go, mostly around puberty.
