[quote=Anonymous]OP, my daughter is in school and her best friend has special needs (autism, so different...but maybe my advice applies) they have been best friends since they were 3 and she knows there are differences between them especially as they get older. I just tell her things like "Jane's brain works differently than yours". or "your really good and X and Jane is really good at Y". At 4 kids just want to play and I'm sure your child will play this other child just fine. Point out the positive things and things that make the kids the same. Or, that's what is working for us.
