[quote=Anonymous]Do you ever make her order her own food at a restaurant? Do you make her advocate for herself if something is wrong at school (missing paperwork, off grade)? Sometimes this just takes practice and a little push. My kids all went through a stage where they felt shy To ask for their order when we go out for ice cream, but we said “you order or you don’t get ice cream” and we make sure they ask politely and say thank you when they receive their ice cream. Now they can do it with no problem. Find some ways that she can practice and push her a little to go past her comfort zone. [/quote]
