So, there's a kid in DS's nursery class.
He clearly has some sort of special needs - he doesn't really talk and I can tell from his physical movement that 'something is up'. There is also another child who waves his hands around a lot uncontrollably but is otherwise communicative and plays 'normally'.
DS prompted conversation today about the first child and was curious as to why he doesn't play with the other kids but did spend time playing with the second today and seems to like him.
Anyway, please help me talk to my child in the right way about all this sort of thing as I have no experience and not sure what to say.
Since DS has started this train of thought, am pretty sure he'll continue it until he gets satisfactory answers. Not sure what the questions will be yet though.
Sorry this is rambling, but I was caught unawares and suddenly realised that I was unequipped for it.
Hope I haven't offended anyone.
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
SN children
Can you please help me? (it's gonna come out wrong, but not supposed to)
