[quote=Anonymous]Forgot to add he has a small but solid group of friends at school and plays soccer w the boys in grade. He isn't great socially but still participates - I don't think you're ever going to "fix" this social awkwardness for what it's worth. Some people are wired a certain way and you have to compensate in other ways and as their personalities develop they will figure out how. It's been a long journey for us with a lot of ups and downs and that's my best advice - the hardest lesson for you is to figure out what to accept at any time and what really needs to be changed and addressed but you cannot do everything at the same time and think improvement is stable. What you will likely see is a time when something "clicks" in your kid and they will be able to manage their differences. Your job as a parent is to get them to that point as best as you can. I'm a huge fan of meds for starting out.[/quote]
