[quote=Anonymous]My 8 year old DS is the "quirky kid". He has ADHD and is on the spectrum. I make sure that he matches, is clean, wears "cool" clothes and shoes, etc., because that is what I can control to keep him from being an outcast. I try to promote his interest in things I know his peers like (Minecraft, for instance) so that he had something to talk to them about. It isn't much, but it is something that I can do. I know that we can't change our kids personalities. But I also know that we live in a society where people are judged based on their appearance. Why aren't you at least making sure your kid is clean? I know its hard--my son hates the shower sometimes--but some things aren't up for negotiation. [/quote]
