[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve been reading this thread for days, in addition to the other thread started by the OP.

I have rarely read more resistant and combative responses to what’s amounted to detailed help and support.

OP, why are you so angry?[/quote]

[b]Agree, it’s a very odd response for someone who’s asked others to weigh in on an anonymous site[/b].[/quote]

Because people have made all sorts of accusations that I never said, I've gotten responses along the lines of I've kept her sheltered and she hasn't had the opportunity to develop social skills,  when I've said that she's always been involved in many activities including theater.  I've had posters claim that I have been a helicopter mom and interferred with her social life so that she's never had to develop social skills, and while admittedly what I'm considering doing now is definitely very helicopterish, I've never done anything like this before, and never said anything in my postings to make people think that I have.  People are just making assumptions about what they think the type of mom who would request something like this is like, and putting that bias out there in their postings, even ignoring many of the things that I have said to the contrary.  Yes, I did say that I'm not hopeful that therapy would work for her, and yes I still have my reservations, but I would still would like for her try it.  I mean it's not like there's anything to lose by it.  And I actually HAVE encouraged her to try therapy a few times in the past, but she has always been adamant about not wanting it.  [/quote]
