With the Light is similar to Wandering Son because they are both long drama/slice-of-life manga centered around the lives of children from a young age to early high school. The main characters of both series feature a child who is different from the majority of students and it showcases the struggles of navigating through life that way. If you're interested in seeing a realistic and considerate depiction of different people, I'd recommend this series.
