Ida: No...

Ida's mom hugged her and Ida hugs back.

Ida's mom: Its OK, sweetie .

Ida: Everyone finds me weird because I do not do what normal kids do.

Ida's mom : That is their loss, if they do not like who you are that is their problem. You should not be ashamed of who you are. Be proud of who you are.

Ida: Thanks, Mama.
