[quote=Anonymous]OP my son doesn't read social cues well, and is self conscious because he's uncoordinated at sports. He's also lonely because of social awkwardness and because he's an only child. Anyway, DS would run outside every time the neighbor boy is out if I let him-- then try to manipulate it so he doesn't have to play sports. We're vigilant and don't allow him to be intrusive. What helps my son is direct, concise language that does not humiliate him. Even better if it comes from another kid. Inclusion in a positive, encouraging way helps too- maybe showing the kid how to play or shoot a basket if you have time/ patience. [/quote]
