[quote=Anonymous]Our 7 year old daughter has a hard time speaking with adults. If asked a question, she sometimes doesn't respond or whispers a barely audible one word answer. She often requires prompting. I've tried to explain that what was considered shyness in a pre-schooler is now perceived as impolite. (I've gotten comments from other parents.) She seems to be okay with her school teacher but has trouble speaking and making eye contact with her friends' parents and also her extra-curriculur teachers. We've tried role play. Any other ideas?
