Waiter Stands Up for Special Needs Child
http://austinist.com/2013/01/22/i_wa...iter_stand.php
A waiter at the Houston restaurant Laurenzo's made international news when he did something both quiet and brave - he refused to serve a family of regular diners when the father complained about a special needs child sitting nearby.
Kim Castillo brought her son Milo, who has Down's syndrome, into the restaurant last Wednesday. She says, "We have been taking Milo out to restaurants since he was born. On the whole, he acts better than most typical children." But another family disagreed, asking to be moved. Waiter Michael Garcia complied, until he heard the dad make the following disparaging remark: "Special needs children need to be special somewhere else."
