[quote=Anonymous]My DD was (still sort of is) this way. Turned out to be due to her anxiety which we did not even know she had. We do cognitive behavior therapy now and the therapist taught her to look at people's noses when they speak. It works, the other person has no idea DD is not making eye contact and it's less threatening for DD. The therapist told me asking someone with anxiety to make eye contact is extremely anxiety inducing and not helpful, so don't force it. You may want to look into anxiety. It's not something you want to go untreated. [/quote]
