[quote=Anonymous]Your child would benefit from a good social skills group. It takes a lot of specific instruction to be able to understand another’s point of view and to suppress one’s need to information dump by realizing that in the long run, people will avoid you. This needs to be explicitly taught without shaming the child. Everyone eventually has to fake it at some point and pretend to listen, like the kid who doesn’t want to sit at the table. Social stories help, too. It’s key to emphasize that lowering your voice will make people who already like you want to hang around you more. Turn up the TV very loud and let them now this is how others feel when you are too loud.[/quote]
