[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I want her to be kind and inclusive, but I don't want to speculate inappropriately about Larlo's needs and I definitely don't want to give her the idea that there's something "weird" about Larlo even if she's noticed ways in which Larlo's behavior and circumstances are different from hers. I figured you all would be the right ones to ask![/quote]
OP I would focus it back on the loud noise that upset Larlo.  Every kindergartener can think of a noise that was upsetting to them or someone else, be it loud noises at an event they went to, or their little sister's fear of the flushing sound in a public toilet.  I agree that speculation or "connecting the dots" isn't the way to go here.  Your DD is old enough to notice that some things bother some people more than they bother others.

In my experience kids that age learn quickly.  Based on what I've seen, each time Larlo runs screaming from the class due to a noise, they'll be less and less fazed.  However without help from teachers and parents, this does *not* translate into knowing how to include Larlo at recess, etc.  [/quote]
