[quote=Anonymous]I have a few thoughts. First, two children is not a group. Unless they plan to add more children into the group as you go, I'd find an actual social skills group. Second, it is unclear if there are actually different rules about sharing for both girls. It sounds like you are assuming that there is a rule about needing to share if asked that is only applied to your daughter, but you phrase this as a hypothetical of what would happen if the other girl asked your daughter to share. It very well could be that sharing is optional and the social skills goal is to use their words to ask and answer appropriately. Which, by the way, is a common approach. Third, although it is not uncommon for speech therapists to address pragmatic communication, I have hesitations about a social skills group for children with ASD and ADHD led by a speech therapist. A psychologist or social worker generally has much more relevant training for social skills.[/quote]
