[quote=Anonymous]. In the past year he has had a new sibling, a new house, and his nanny left. These are huge changes! 5-6 is also a huge developmental leap. Sorry if I missed this, but did he just finish K or is he getting ready to start K? K is also a big change. All of these things combined can be a shock to a little kid's system, with the nanny leaving as the icing on the cake. I would continue therapy but I would also push forward with some "normal" kid activities and socializing (maybe consult the therapist for some guidance here?). I would caution against making him feel like he needs to be treated with kid gloves right now or that something's wrong with him. Also, have you read any parenting books like Good Inside or No Bad Kids? Both of these address how changes we take for granted are paradigm shifts for young kids, and how you can best support them through it. [/quote]
