An Invitation to Inclusion

To invite or not to invite?
Children with special needs, whether it’s a physical disability or developmental, do get excluded, by nervous parents or reluctant children. In fact, they’re left out more often than not.
If you’re what another parent of a child with special needs called a “parent of typical kids” how do you handle birthdays if there’s a child with special needs in your child’s class? Do you invite all the children, or push your child to include a child who might not get many invitations?
If you’re the parent of the special needs child, how do you wish your fellow parents would handle this? Is exclusion harder when most of the other children are invited and yours is not?
I am open to any suggestions or comments.
