  Absolutely! The very idea! And this isn't all about one individual either, lest we go down the route of discussing another persons personal status on an open forum. This goes for many many people seen as "vulnerable", a term bandied about by many a social worker in order to justify their own role! A mate of mine is bi-polar and sometimes make use of mental health services and has to struggle sometimes to retain control of her own life, not because of the bi-polar, that is manageable and she knows herself well enough to manage it and use the right support at the right time when needed. She also has a demanding job and a full private life!!! But it is often the - as Ross so wonderfully calls them - bleeding hearts who want to step in and "help". "Help" is another word for "take control". Resist!!
  
  My mate is so bored with hearing the term "vulnerable"! We believe it may be the only quadrosyllabic word the social workers can pronounce.........
