Teach your kids to be includers

Hi, all,

Below is a link to a beautiful blog from Hands Free Mama. It is about the pain that comes from not being included, and how one person can turn that pain around by reaching out to someone else who is also on the outside.  Whether you are a parent who is new to a group, a kid who is new to a school, or a family who is new to the neighborhood, being “the new kid” can be made a whole lot easier if we are made to feel welcome.  Take some time today to look around and see who isn’t being included, you may wind up meeting someone really cool!

Am I Invisible? The Pain-Relieving Response to Being Rejected or Excluded
