YOU CAN’T PLAY

A couple of months ago my daughter came home and quite simply said…I hate being left out.  Some kids on the playground formed a group to perform in the talent show and kicked her out saying they don’t need a 4th.  Yea…rejection sucks.  Being forgotten and ignored sucks.  Yet it is a part of life…
