[quote=Anonymous]I don't think OP is too involved-- this is an issue of social understanding. I have a DS with social issues and it's heartbreaking to see him make mistakes that cause others to distance themselves. When a kid feels like that don't have friends (or the friendship that they hoped to have) it can cause anxiety and depression. OP I absolutely agree with the suggestion of social skills therapy. It sounds like your DD is not able to adjust her behavior and take others' views into consideration in social situations. This is exactly the dynamic that social skills therapy can help. Your DD's behavior sounds like it is driven by anxiety and resulting impulsivity and insecurity. Your DD will gain confidence when she can maintain friendships. [/quote]
