The Special Child

Article Summary   by:Trizomi     Original Author: Anonymous
ª
 
The morning begins the usual way each day for Jamie. No smiles , no greetings, and no friends. Life is unbearable for this 11 year old who has progressed from one grade to another as a loner. Her smile lights up the room as she stares into my eyes and sends me another message of hope and plea for comfort and support. Meanwhile the others are oblivious of her presence. [BR]The sound of the other children''s laughter cannot drown the silent tears of this special child. She may not be as intelligent as the others but should that prevent her from getting accquainted with anyone?[BR] Is it to be a another case of social discrimination?
