» Does my special needs daughter really eat lunch alone every day? | Offbeat Mama
I didn’t know how she would react to the offer (I could only think of how I would have responded to a similar proposal in my youth), but I asked her if she would like for Julie or myself to come to school and eat with her. She surprised me a little by saying yes immediately. As we continued our trip through the store, she asked me again a few times.
“Are you going to come eat lunch with me?”
Later, as we unloaded the groceries from the car, Schuyler looked at me and simply asked, “Why doesn’t anyone want to be my friend?”
