What would you do? You make the choice! Don't look for a punch line;
There isn't one! Read it anyway. My question to all of you is: Would
you have made the same choice?

Actually, story comes from a story by a Rabbi that appeared in
a book of his. The article on snopes:

http://www.snopes.com/glurge/chush.htm

gives the cite and then argues that this is not a good thing, that it
is "... bestow(ing) upon the disabled a pat on the head instead of
granting them acceptance for who they are, ..."

Interesting article.

Oh, good lord. If the disabled person was an adult, there might be a
smidgen of an argument there. But being kind to a child, disabled or not,
especially when that kindness comes from other children, is certainly not
"giving a pat on the head."

I swear people will find anything to b*tch about; this is definitely proof
of that. Don't be nice to the disabled boy; that isn't nice!
