Description
Kyle is outside on the school playground with the other 4-year-olds. He is standing to the side and watching longingly as other children climb the wooden ladder, crawl through the tunnels, hang from the monkey bars, and glide down the slide. Finally, with encouragement from a teacher, Kyle tries to join in. But he has difficulty keeping up with the other children. When he repeatedly tries unsuccessfully to climb the wooden ladder, some of the children laugh. One child yells out, "'My brother says you're fat." Humiliated, Kyle stops trying and moves to the sandbox to play alone. **********
