[quote=Anonymous]I think it can be hard for a lot of kids to make friends at that age. My son had very few friends, and when they weren't in his class he rarely made new ones. However, I helped him by getting involved with the other parents, arranging group playdates, hosting parties where all the kids and the whole class was invited, and so on. We were always invited to birthday parties - actually, most people invited the whole class if they could - but if you invite others then you get invited back, and if you go to their parties they usually come to yours. I mean, even arranging something at a park would give him a chance to socialize without the pressures of school. In many classrooms today there is little to no socialization allowed, making it very hard for some kids to connect.[/quote]
