If she doesn't have friends will you tell her she is never going to have friends isn't worthy of friends?
Just some thoughts

EHhhhhh..... but I don't think I'm thaaaaaaaat important. I mean, technically, I am a random person on the street. But that scenario kinda reminds me of my younger sister. She has mental and physical disabilities which limit her and she might be a perpetual child forever as she grows on to adulthood. She always feels so self-conscious and pressured from my parents to be "normal" or a "superstar" and that takes a big toll on her.
I usually tell her what I wished my parents old us when growing up. Like, "It's okay, there's always a next time." "At least we tried something new." "That wasn't so bad!" She's in high school right now and of course, right now it's a big part of her life. I try to take her out every month and get her stuff but I know it's not enough to support her like how real parents should. Not yelling at her all the time and calling her retarded.
Eh... we'll... my older sister and I are trying taking care of her. I'm managing her school psychological assessment meeting with her and my family. But.... eh. We'll see.
Thanks a bunch. You've been super supportive, helpful and given me another "pair of eyes" to see with.
