Someone said this to me today. She said that dD2 isn't going to have friends because she is "too serious" and that it doesn't matter because she's not bothered.
I said that she is very much bothered, and the reply was "we'll that's because she sees DD3 and doesn't realise she's different."
Some children genuinely aren't bothered, I know, but DD2 is, very much so.
Why is everybody so satisfied with a sad, confused child who can't learn and thinks she's no good for anything? Why do I feel like it's a continual fight for people to even see who DD2 is?
