[quote=Anonymous]PP, Her child does not seem isolated like yours. You're projecting. Her child socializes with a neighbor and goes on outings with school friends a couple times a month. I'm assuming he's social at school and has activities. 18-24 outings a year is really different from the 5 or less your child had and I'm not sure you understand that informal gatherings like her child going to the gym with a friend are the basis of friendships - not whatever imaginary "social gatherings" you speak of. Our own very social DD sometimes is so busy she can't fit in a "social gathering" in some months. She's still seeing friends informally to eat after school or before or after sports or other activities or hanging out with neighborhood friends and yes being on the phone or connecting on social media with them. Most of her friends are like this too and they are all thought of as pretty "popular" at their school. [/quote]
