[quote=Anonymous]Yes, that sounds familiar. She gets lost in group conversation and leans on her crutches when she does try to join in (quoting movies, playacting, making silly faces or sound effects, etc.) It's excruciating to watch because the kids think she's weird, but she's really just trying anything and everything to be a part of things socially. And that is really the best she can do. Do any of you think anxiety exacerbates this issue, and have any of you tried treating that aspect and seen improvement? DC definitely talks below her ability when other kids are around -- not nearly as well as she does one-on-one with me. [/quote]
