[quote=Anonymous]My son could be like this in the past, but I made it clear it was unacceptable and I monitored it. It's not just doing social skills group. You have to monitor it daily and be direct, but also praise often for good choices. Also, we monitored all texts, etc until he showed he could handle independence. When we monitored, we did not let him text again, if he did not hear back. If he invited a kid to hang out and the person had any excuse, we made it clear the "ball is now in HIS court" and what that means. My son has been on the other side of this and I was surprised the parent went along and encouraged. The mom started texting me constantly for hangouts after my child had declined and I had declined and she was not on the spectrum herself. If anything she got really manipulative in her texts and could be quite charming in person.[/quote]
