[quote=Anonymous]My son sounds a bit like this. He was evaluated and did not fall on the spectrum; he's just a really introverted, sensitive kid. We have him in speech therapy and occupational therapy, and we're starting to see some benefit. As far as the social interactions, does she have any friends she feels comfortable with? My son isn't great in large groups and has little interest in strangers, but has a couple of close friends who he adores and whose behavior he models. These friends have been the best therapy for us, frankly. As far as the parties go, we tend to show up early and let him get comfortable in the setting while telling him what will go on. We'll engage him with some activity so that when people start arriving, he barely notices them. And if he asks to leave, we leave and discuss it later. No point in letting him go full meltdown; it just creates further negative association. [/quote]
