Trying to say a teacher kindergarten locked me in the closet at school everyday. She was elderly and mean.
1964 or 1965. Adults that are emotional immature have a very tough life. Studying Psychology the ripe age is to try to catch them between 2-7 years and build their self esteem.

I am on medication now as an adult still no friends and no trust.

Thank you I will not waste you time again.

This is such a weird thread. An almost two year old was evaluated with emotional immaturity? ?????

Actually - I think these additions by PP are very appropriate - it shows what happens when we do not pay attention to our children. And PP, I am so sorry for 1 ) what your parents did and 2) the really insensitive initial response on this link.

I implore you to turn to Christ to help you start a new life. A woman who was continually abused as a child turned her life around this way. Find her story by looking for "Joyce Meyer One Life". THERE IS HOPE! I PROMISE!

Maturity and behavior does not develop on a linear fashion. Sometimes a child tracks with peers and sometimes not. Just coach her through it and know that sometimes she will get it and sometimes not.

Honestly, she probably has the emotional maturity of a child who is 5 or 6. She has no diagnosed learning issues and no diagnosed developmental issues. I thought time would help but it has not. Is there really anything I can do to help her? Is there some professional that I should be seeking out for assistance?

A social skills group can help, plus time.

We held our son back.
