Without you, that particular thread would have never grown so long nor would there have been spin-off threads so neither would have caught my interest.

Since they did, I started reading them and discovered the Parenting Playgroups social skills group and it was exactly what I think my child needs but I had never
heard of them or the group before.

Glad you liked it, OP. My DS has also attended and it was a very positive experience for us.

For the PP who wanted to know what they do, you can get more info at

My understanding is that they help kids learn how to do things like get involved with group play, learn how to talk to other kids, etc.

OP..so are you signed up to start one soon? I would be interested to hear your thoughts and experiences with it.
