[quote=Anonymous]I'm 13:41... I just read your other thread. I did want to echo what others said - we also have a therapist who DD sees sort of in spurts when she feels the need. She has been really helpful in working on social skills and helping her see social scenarios in context. (Some of the same things I tell her, but it's better received coming from someone else.) She's also a more neutral party - I tend to focus on the areas where DD needs work and she often will remind her that she deserves kindness and loyalty exactly as she is, which helps her self-esteem. (I'm always in "how do we fix this" mode.) We have done some social skills classes when she was the same age as your DD. They were somewhat helpful - a lot of that effectiveness, IMO depends on the therapist and the mix of kids in the group. [/quote]
