[quote=Anonymous]My DD with MERLD (undiagnosed till she was 14) had a small, tight group of 3 friends in elementary school, but had no other friends. And when they all dispersed in middle school, things got really rocky. She had a few acquaintances from school she'd hang out with occasionally, but none blossomed into a friendship. For DD it's both having a hard time both getting the conversation, especially in a group, and then being able to coherently say what she's thinking about in response. Interestingly, she has had two long-term boyfriends, one in high school and another now in college. She is better at communicating one-on-one and has a couple friends at college but hates going to parties.[/quote]
