[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] My son has a great female friend who is a really good influence on him too. (He can get into trouble). He likes her still, but because she is a girl [b]he feels [/b]all playing together outside of school must stop or they will [b]be teased [/b]and mocked and people will assume they are boyfriend and girlfriend. On the one hand, I am surprised he even socially tunes into this because he has Aspergers and tends to be clueless. On the other hand I wish he didn't tune into this because she helps him with social skills whereas his male friends and he just reinforce the stuff they aren't supposed to do. We still get him together with his male friends because friendship is important, but must he give up a female friend?[/quote] My 6th grade boy socializes with girls. It's fine. Did something like a book, tv show put this idea into his head? Was he teased at school. Or is he trying to extrapolate social rules from what he thinks is correct? [/quote]
