[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, will she talk to relatives or extended family?[/quote] She talks to her grandparents who live a couple blocks away and whom she sees all the time. After an initial warm-up period, she talks to her other grandparents. With aunts and uncles, she isn't silent, but is very, very quiet and will never initiate conversation. It kills me to think that she is this anxious and has been at least for the past three years, when she started school. Her first year in nursery school was a very stressful year in our family's life and I feel so bad that I didn't shield her from it and that maybe that created a bad/anxious association with school.[/quote]
