[quote=Anonymous]I do feel this is a “won’t” not a “can’t “ thing because he interacts with other kids fine during class or activities. He had kids to want him to be part of their team or join them for lunch but most of time just said “no” politely and went on his own. He rejected the ideas of having parties or asking someone over, zero phone or social media conversations outside school. I get it to respect him being his unique self but can’t help worrying about the consequences in the long run. Should I push him to socialize more even it’s against his will? Explaining why it’s important to try to make friends doesn’t motivate him. Arranging “play dates” for him is age-inappropriate. Tia for any suggestions. [/quote]
