[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 14 yo AuDHD ds has almost no friends. He reaches out to kids and invites and they blow him off. He’s lonely and feels left out.[/quote]
What do you mean almost?  What did he try with the kids who blew him off?  
[quote=Anonymous]His social skills are lacking. He constantly talks about inappropriate things and says shocking things for attention. He is also highly sensitive. All of this alienates other kids.[/quote]
Where do you see this?  What is he doing and saying?
[quote=Anonymous]Last year, he had a couple outlets. He was a junior volunteer at a non profit animal shelter. They liked him and he seemed happy there but now he no longer wants to do it. [/quote]
Did he tell you why?  What other outlet did he have?  
[quote=Anonymous]We try to give him advice socially. It goes in one ear and out the other. He is in therapy and on meds. I’m thinking of enrolling him in a social skills group but I’ve heard mixed things about how effective they are. Any advice is appreciated [/quote]
What is he in therapy for?  What advice are you giving him?  Are you giving him advice beforehand or afterwards?[/quote]
