[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Of course she doesn’t have to play with someone that is a jerk. I will never understand how inclusion has turned into inviting the bully to the birthday party. And I say that as a Mon of a kid with profound intellectual disability. I am happy when my kid is “included”, but I’m also fully aware that a nonverbal kid wearing diapers isn’t going to attend her peers Sweet Sixteen parties. Inclusion doesn’t actually mean “all the people, all the time, even if they are big jerks or the event would be wildly inappropriate for them.” That said, I also agree that kids can change a lot so I wouldn’t write the kid off forever. But trust your kid’s judgment more. People get to pick their friends. I’m not friends with jerks, and I don’t expect my kid to be either.[/quote] I love you for this! [/quote]
