[quote=Anonymous]My son is also predisposed to anxiety and the more he is in social situations, the better. The past few months have been incredible with restrictions easing up. He's even made a couple new friends and really been coming out of his shell. We can't afford therapy with our plan, much less $400/week like some PPs are paying! So it is up to us, the parents, to be watchful, present with him, and offer aid as needed -- w/keeping an open door of communication, being supportive and non-judgmental while also pushing gently him along a path that avoids isolation. He went through CBT therapy when younger, so we remind him of what was learned then, what worked, when to employ certain techniques, etc. It is not up to teachers to do this in my stead, but if they bring it to my attention when they notice certain behaviors it sure is helpful.[/quote]
