[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DC is on the mild end of the autism spectrum and his main issue is with peer to peer social interaction.  He had similar trouble at that age in school and especially in summer camps. An ongoing weekly social skills group helped my son immensely.  At first it was the only place where he had friends.  then it helped him branch out elsewhere and brought him along with experiences.  Then it was more of a troubleshooting group where they helped each other solve issues. Monthly parent group helped us too- first to develop our parenting skills and then to trouble shoot too   He went from 4th grade through 11th grade.  Worth every dime.  This is a long term issue that will not be solved in the short term.   Think tortoise not hare.

Groups like scouts and church Re then youth group worked well. Playing an instrument in band or orchestra is another place to feel like you fit in and be a part of a larger group. [/quote]

Where would the OP find out about the weekly social skills group?  That sounds like a wonderful help.  [/quote]

Where does the OP live?[/quote]
