[quote=Anonymous]Yes, giving “rules” for social interactions can help. Yes, much more praise than correction. And, if she complains that something went wrong, turn the tables and ask why she thinks that was. Ask her what the other kids might have been thinking or feeling, because she’s too tuned into her own thoughts and feelings and isn’t at the point yet where she can read the room. You can pretend to play “spies” with her by watching another table in a restaurant or somewhere in public and very quietly commenting on what might be going on socially at that table. If you watch a TV show together, or a movie, you can pause it and ask about the interactions on the screen and what socially is going on. It’s much easier for her to talk about these topics about other people rather than herself. It gives her a chance to learn without feeling shamed or uncomfortable herself.

Absolutely give lots of positive feedback naturally. And you can say that everyone struggles with those mysterious social rules at some point so she doesn’t feel like the only one.

The kids I have had in class who repeat the same jokes over and over seem stuck in a loop and need to be given a break from the group to reset themselves.[/quote]
