When Our Kids Get Left Out

With social networking comes the ability to see things in a way that never could be seen before. Activities planned, who is invited, who is not invited, individuals excited about the event, pictures of the event, comments about how fun the event was, etc..

One thing that may be a plus for a child with attachment issues, is the fact that, because of trauma's experienced early on in life, they usually don't get their feelings hurt when they are not included.

This is a cruel world we live in, and I suppose this is another lesson for me.. to turn the other cheek and to forgive others for their insensitivity towards those with special needs.

As Christians, we are to love one another without respect of persons. This includes loving those that have disabilities and areas in their life that need healing. And the irony of it all is that it also includes loving those that leave our children out.

"To have respect of persons is not good: for for a piece of bread that man will transgress." Pro 28:21
