Miss Manners: Impractical invitations make friend uncomfortable
Dear Miss Manners: I'm an adult with physical and emotional disabilities, and I live with my caregiver. I have an older friend who is a very sweet person with good intentions, but I feel like she doesn't really understand my needs.
Among other things, I have a catheter and use a wheelchair. She often says she wants to 'take me out on the town' to 'get crazy.' So far, she's never followed through with any of these invitations, but every time she brings it up, I feel very uncomfortable.

Tots end a busy year on a high with visits and a graduation for those starting school
TOTS at a Greenock children's centre are enjoying an extra busy time as they gear up for summer. Youngsters at Glenbrae Children's Centre enjoyed visits from firefighters, paramedics and the team from ZooLab. And this week the Glenbrae team also held a graduation ceremony for children who will be heading to primary school after the summer holidays. (Image: George Munro) (Image: George Munro) (Image: George Munro) (Image: George Munro) Craig Scott, head of centre, said: "Last wee and this week we are trying to round off the year with celebrations and events to mark a very busy year. "Last week we had visits from firefighters and paramedics and ZooLab, who brought some animals into the centre, and Boogie Bugs as part of our summer fun week. "We listen to what the children are interested in."

It's good they visit the nursery and children get the chance to meet them face to face and learn about their tools and their equipment." "This week we had celebrations in all rooms, and a graduation for the children who are leaving to go on to school. "We have 20 children who are moving on to school and we held the graduation in Auchmountain Halls. "They performed songs for their parents and carers and we had a slide show of photographs showing what they've done over the year. "We had a presentation and they received books and certificates and sang more songs." (Image: George Munro) (Image: George Munro) (Image: George Munro) (Image: George Munro) (Image: George Munro) (Image: George Munro) Children can also look forward to beach parties and water play to finish the term on the high. Craig said it had been a pleasure working with the children, their carers and parents. He said: "At the graduation, it made me remember that we have had some of these children when they were six or nine months old. "Looking back at all these photographs, it makes you realise how much time you have spent with them. "It's sad to see them go, but that is what we are here to do - to help them move on to that next step."
