School playground

Not sure if I am in the right place! but are there other parents out there whose heart breaks knowing that their son standing in the school playground alone watching the other children playing. With the insight that they are different and have no friends but dont want to be different and want to have friends.

My son tells his sister and teacher how he feels and their hearts ache for him too, arrrrrgh

  • Hi longman,

    that's very true...unfortunately my son will try but finds the knock backs hard, so he's very happy with the things in place :). thankfully his school are brilliant, and really want to try and find his comfort zone so he's happy and learning the best he can.

    it reminds me of a conversation i had with my dad, saying i was worried that Ben will have a lonely life when he's older. but as my dad pointed out, we would consider it lonely but Ben will see it as contented. i think it's important for everyone to remember that everybody leads different lives. regardless of any diagnosis people may or may not have. :)
