Op here. I wouldn’t say he’s declining but I also wonder if having someone step in to help when he struggled with things has left him a bit unable to do it for himself too. I worry about that aspect of day to day, oftentimes when he was confused by something we would step in and help him essentially doing the “job” but giving him credit for it. In hindsight, the same was happening and still is happening at school. I recently called to see if he had packed his sandwich in his lunch box, his teacher went to check and rather than have him confirm, confirmed for him.

I wonder if he’s not been given enough independence to learn how but because he struggled with things, I believe we all assumed we were helping him not hindering him.

I just can’t narrow down.

I have asked two sets of different pediatric groups for referrals and assistance to no avail outside of that initial evaluation. Because it happens at home and at school, I don’t know if it is possibly social anxiety, which is usually the only thing the doctor will mention if anything. [/quote]
