[quote=Anonymous][quote]Also, my son has some social skills issues due to ADHD, and has had some former friends no longer want to hang out with him. It was somewhat hurtful at the time (I was not close with their moms, just hurtful for DS). However, realistically, he was better off being on his own for a little bit and ultimately connecting with boys he has more in common with than for these kids to have invited him along to things or agreed to let him come out of pity. There are people who legitimately want to be friends with him, just not those particular boys, and he deserves better than to be someone's pity friend.

You are the one making the friendships pity friendships. I hope you are not passing down that kind of messaging to your son. He deserves much better than you thinking he is a pity invite to any event.[/quote]

You have completely missed the point, but that's ok.  He wasn't getting invited because they didn't want to hang out with him - and that was ultimately ok, because if they didn't want to spend time with him, he's better off now that he is with other kids who do.[/quote]
