[quote=Anonymous]Thanks so much for the replies.

21:27 my son actually has a lot of friends even very good ones. He is definitely better, more comfortable and more considerate, with his close friends and the few people with whom he feels comfortable. There is a lot of room for improvement even there, though. And with everyone else he is much, much worse. We have play dates pretty much every day. I was hoping he would pick up the skills on his own, but now I am thinking I have to do someone more explicit.

Thank you for the book rec! Do you have any aimed at the child?

21:35 my son is definitely an introvert and does better with one or two kids. He is more himself. Big brother is a great idea. Is that something you do through school?

As for social skills groups, we tried once and it didn't work. My son just didn't like the set up. It is too bad, I wanted it to work. So I put more energy into play dates. He also plays a couple of sports and has team friends., but ... Well, this doesn't seem to be quite enough![/quote]
