[quote=Anonymous]This is true of almost all kids, both neurotypical and SN. And it's true of adults too -- we present a different self in the office or at dinner parties than we do at home. In fact, it's really a sign of development that your DS has a "social self" and a "home self" to present. It's difficult to get a sense of what is and is not a problem. Your child likes school, likes his teacher, and is excited to go to school. He perhaps lacks peer connections (although he has playdates, which is great), and that upsets you. Does it upset him? If not, I think you need to tone this down, OP. Because it sounds to me like your DS is really doing quite well. He likes school and has playdates. Things are going well. Try not to get ahead of yourself to years down the road and try not to project your feelings of anxiety on to him. He sounds happy to me.[/quote]
