[quote=Anonymous]It can require effort to engage with this age group. I regularly see my shy-ish 13y.o. at school and also attend his meets and games. He talks to the adults who engage with him. Does a quick wave or small smile while walking by others he knows but doesn’t have established basic rapport with. A cheery “hey, Kid! [mentions thing that is genuinely interesting to them both or asks a question]” is a greeting that I’ve never seen him (or any other kid) pass up. These are also the people he’ll actually approach to initiate conversation. How are you engaging with the kids at your house? Are you easy and natural with them? [/quote]
