[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, I’m not sure if this is social skills or immaturity. But, my 11 year old ds with ADHD is so socially behind. He talk incessantly, but he does baby talk and weird voices, tells total non-sequiter jokes. Other kids constantly call him “weird” and he struggles with friendships a lot. He had a lot of friends when he was younger, but his quirkiness and maturity gaps are becoming more apparent with age. Obviously, I correct him if he does or says something unkind. But, he’s mostly a nice kid. His biggest problems are with unusual and immature social behavior. I don’t correct that because I don’t want him to feel bad about being who he is. How do I help him with this without making him feel bad?[/quote]
