Secrete Santa Wanted

I know, it’s rude to make fun of those with disabilities – but the spelling errors (“doughtier” for daughter, ad infinitum...), the posting is in all caps, and lack of punctuation almost made me want to cry.

My biggest question, though, is how does one “Secrete” Santa? It sounds quite painful, actually. ;)

What bothers me is if it's true...what is she doing with an AOL account and/or a computer? It's not like you can use AOL at the library, you know?

She might just be on disability for an injury that keeps her from working, not necessarily being developmentally disabled, you know? So, you can maybe make fun. :)

It seems to me that she is taking the lazy way out, by posting there instead of registering her family with any one of the many charitable organizations who provide toys, books, hampers, etc.

Unless her child is over 18, in which case she'd be out of luck with most of them.
