[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also I'm just going to put this out there so you understand- my daughter cannot respond verbally to these queries. She can understand them however.[/quote] My son couldn't speak for several years due to trauma, though he can hear. When kids asked what's wrong with him that he's not playing, I'd just say "He can't talk and feels shy about it. But he can hear, and Zack loves to race or play Marco Polo." Sometimes the kid gave an "Oh" and walked off (and reported back to his friends) and sometimes the kid gave us "Wanna play?" and they'd run off together. It's shallow but does your DD look significantly different from other kids her age? Popular swimsuit, hairstyle, etc? It's base, but this stuff makes a big difference to kids.[/quote]
