[quote=Anonymous]My 4th grade DS has no friends. I don't think he's been invited to a birthday party or playdate since 2nd grade. He's very shy around other kids and has a hard time opening himself up to connect. He's not disliked or teased (yet) but I think kids got tired of trying because he wouldn't reciprocate and now he's just a loner. We've done social skills groups, initiating play dates, scouts, regular robotics classes, etc. Team sports are not a good option for him. I don't know what else to do and I'm concerned he's going to be a very lonely kid. He says he wants friends but can't seem to do what is necessary to make it happen. He does take meds for ADHD/Anxiety. Has anyone been in this situation and things improved? Looking for a glimmer of hope here....[/quote]
