[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is he unhappy? I'm not sure I have a clear picture of what you perceive the problem to be.[/quote]

He doesn’t seem unhappy. He likes to read, do art and play with legos. He plays soccer and tennis. He declines play dates.

On the other hand, my middle child is a social butterfly. Tons of play dates, birthday party invitations and talking/laughing with teammates and classmates.

DH thinks they are both fine, just different. He actually said he thinks teacher does know my child, just doesn’t talk to parents about him. In FCPS, we don’t even have a parent teacher conference unless you have issues and concerns. Report card has 3 sentences basically outlining what student are learning in class.[/quote]

If he's not unhappy and he's engaged in his academics and extracurriculats, why would you move him?

Some kids, just like some adults, are just introverted and decline social outings because they need time to recharge. That isn't bad. Chances are, if he's at a private, he would still be an introvert because that's who he is.
