[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I wouldnt worry about friends. [b]But I would force some extracurricular activities.[/b] She’ll meet new kids and find some hobbies she can progress in over the years. Too much time home isn’t a good thing. [/quote] How do you force a child who doesn't want to do something, to do something? [/quote] It took us about a year from K-1st, trying 2 things a season. It's hard to leave the house and go do something new especially if you aren't naturally good at it. There was bribery involved the first few months. After a year he got used to that idea and now adjusts quickly to a new activity. At the start of 2nd, he started having opinions on what he likes and what to quit. He hasn't made friends but at school he can talk about his activities. [/quote]
