[quote=Anonymous]Ours does seem to get along better with other HFA (or at least developmentally delayed) kids, probably for the same reason he does better with younger kids. But still, successful social interactions have to be rigorously planned/scaffolded by adults at first. It got better once they developed shared interests and context. I'd suggest starting with activities that don't require the kids to carry the load of socializing too much--movies, bounce houses, Chuck E Cheese or whatever. If you just put them in a room together, even a room with a lot of Legos, they may not have much fun. Better to build a history of having fun together before they have to make it happen themselves.[/quote]
