Politically Correct

There is a lot of talk about political correctness lately.

I think a lot of it has to do with our President.  But it also has to do with the century/era we are living in.

I don't give a shit. 

Don't get me wrong.  I'm not walking about saying offensive things, degrading people or even being rude.  If you are talking about a subject and you are saying exactly how you are feeling then you should be able to safely say it.  I guess within reason.

I think there are also different levels and versions of political correctness.

When my mother was in physical rehab the aids/nurses that were taking care of her were of all different nationalities.  None of that matter (most of them sucked at their job) but the ones who were dark skinned my mother insisted on referring to them as "the colored girl".  They never heard her or were even aware she was saying that...at least I am 99% sure but I feel that was rude to say in general.   When I have told that story to friends...they say its the generation.  Still wrong but I agree

SO now with our generation its different.  We would never say anything like that.  As a matter of fact I think we are so politically correct that its almost offensive if we say anything. 

My mom has now moved into assist living.  When I tell people their response is always "I'm so sorry..that must have been a hard decision or hard on you"  Are they saying that to be politically correct too? 

Because it wasn't

It wasn't a hard decision and it hasn't been hard on me.

Its been a lot of work...searching, paperwork and moving her but that it.

My mom is old...she has become unstable when walking, she hasn't been eating properly or bathing properly.  This decision was a no brainer. 

So does that fall under the political correctness issues going on....

I have no idea...nor do I have any idea if this post even makes sense.

Doesn't have to either...
