[quote=Anonymous]It is normal at this age for children to say they don't want to do something even though they are fine and enjoy themselves while at the activity and in class. It is difficult for children to switch activities and also to contemplate the whole day ahead of them. I would try very hard not to let your perception or insecurity of what you observed at the bus stop color your assumptions about this behavior which would be normal and expected under any social circumstances. If she hasn't specifically brought up the bus stop, I think you need to just keep trying to help her navigate those situations socially and strengthen her friendships elsewhere with other kids who may have more shared interests.
