[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can you ask his teacher for their perspective? [/quote] We did check with his teacher, and she thinks he is doing fine socially and is well-liked by peers, with the caveat that in this program (he's in a public school program for gifted kids) the kids are more accepting of social differences and quirks. He's going back to our home middle school for 6th grade and his friends from the program will be at different schools. The kids in his program are geographically dispersed so there don't seem to be as many impromptu playdates as there among the homeschool kids. The teacher did mention that sometimes he doesn't advocate for himself or seems too eager to go along with the desires/opinions of some of the other kids, which concerns me. I signed him up for theater camp this summer, and he's also pumped about joining the school band, which is where I found my social tribe in high school (: [/quote]
