Can you share some personal stories of exclusion?

Can you share some personal stories of exclusion?

Sure! One story that comes to mind is about a young girl who was new at school and felt left out during recess. She watched her classmates play together, but no one invited her to join. It made her feel invisible and lonely.

That sounds really sad. Did she ever find a way to connect with others?

Yes, eventually she found a group of kids who shared her interest in art. They started a small art club, and that helped her build friendships and feel included.

That's a great outcome! Are there other stories like that?

Absolutely! There are many stories of overcoming exclusion, like a boy who was bullied for his interests but later found a supportive community online.

It's inspiring to hear how people can find their place. What can we do to help those who feel excluded?

We can start by being more inclusive ourselves, reaching out to those who seem left out, and creating environments where everyone feels welcome.
