[quote]lol at people in here acting like "the letter must be earned". It's a fricking HS varsity letter, not some prestigious rhodes-scholarship type honor.

If it makes the kid happy to wear it, then so be it, let him have his moment.

The people against something like this are probably the peaked in HS guys who still talk about their high school sport playing days.[/quote

Typical mellinial answer. Everybody gets a trophy!

This is on the mother. She should not have just bought it and put it on his jacket. You may say it's no big deal, but it's a big deal to the students who actually earned it. I feel for the kid I really do. However, the mom is a shitty parent for not approaching this in the correct manner, meaning talk to the school. Also, if she did talk to the school and they told her no, she is an even worse parent.

This isn't like we're awarding a gold star to some normal kid for participating in a spelling bee despite missing the first word.

Dude, the kid has downs fricking syndrome, it's not like they are giving letters willy nilly so some lanky unathletic water boy. Or some lazy potato chip eating fatass. Some of you are heartless bastards.
