I've got a lot of friends and colleagues who are struggling with their children 'school refusing'.
I say, I don't call it 'refusing' and when they look puzzled I say, 'I call it voting with their feet'

My son asked me: would you rather be rich with no friends or pour with many friends.
Without having to think I said pour with friends.
My wife, in splendid painful Autistic honesty, without skipping a beet said Ohhh that's sad cause you're rich* and have no friends.
Ouch hun. But I do have 1 friend actually. Which for an Autistic with anxiety is pretty ok.
*rich like comfortable middle class woth a house not a millionaire who can buy friends.

- anything else
