I have an uncle, who's kind of on the "outside" of society. It's weird, but think of it as a person who's on the outside in highschool, it's kind of like that. He doesn't have good chances of getting a job, or being heard/seen at all so he doesn't really have a chance to get himself a good self-image either.. i want to help him, or atleast give him advice when he taƶlks about this with me, cause all i can do when he tells me how he feels is cry.. it's awful, he's seriously on the OUTSIDE of society, y'all know how that feels in highschool, being left out, imagine living your whole life lika that. I'm trying to convince him that HE needs to take a step towards getting himself out of his situation, but it's not easy - what do I say when he asks "how? what do i do to get myself out?" i dont know, IS there anything he can do?

Sabine answered Thursday May 24 2007, 10:50 pm: Okay, please don't rate, but will you please tell me a little more about WHY your uncle is outside of society? Is he mentally ill? Unattractive with no prospects of improvement? Just nerdy? Unskilled? Uneducated? Just completely lacks social skills? What was his upbringing like? What makes him different from his sibling who's your parent? What is it that keeps him outside society? Only when I know those things can I start to give advice on what to do to bring him around.
