You know, right now Amelia's having anxiety and we just need a few minutes to feel comfortable and then we'll come play.
Um and once you've explained it to kids.
For the most part, uh, the giant majority of kids have been very wonderful about it.
And just the same way if you had a kid who had, I don't know, like cystic fibrosis and you would say, Well, we can't sleep over because at night we have to do breathing treatments, but we'll play, you know, and we'll have a a late night and then we'll come home.
Or or we even have like we have Mormon friends that don't allow their kids to sleep over.
So we do the same thing.
Well, how can we include you as far as you can go where you're comfortable?
And then we respect our differences.
And so their kids come over and we have late nights where we party till like eleven.
But then, you know.
Then they go home and then and that's fine.
Um so
The kids were ready to be accepting of it once they were able to understand.
Or uh like they had a word for it?
And then it was really cute when we would go somewhere
I guess for girl scouts it would happen kind of more just 'cause that's you're always putting the girls in new situations.
And we'd be somewhere and sometimes Amelia would be quiet and if the tour guide or whatever talking like let's say there's something like, Oh, what's wrong, honey?
Does does the cat have your tongue?
Which is like a
totally terrible thing to say to a kid with anxiety, but they don't know.
