But ther *are* special kids! My parents told me I was special
when I was a kid. Of course every parent should do that from time
to time because all kids are special and amazing in their own way.
Wether it's a parent, LEGO or their friends, eventually each one of us
figures out what makes us special.
As for not being special, I'm not a parent but I would think this kind of thing
happens every day. "I wasn't chosen for the team" "suzie said I was ugly"
"John has way more LEGO than I do". Hey, that's life and good parents
show their kids how to deal with it constructively. Not being in the
"special kids" section of a website is probably much less psycologically
damaging and harmful as observing their parents drive home from soccer
practice.
