[quote=Anonymous]Ugh. This is happening to my DD. I don't have any great solutions (she's still pretty miserable) but it has helped her get through recess to find something to focus on doing. Whether it's climbing on the monkey bars, bouncing a ball, playing soccer, or whatever is available at recess, he might feel better if he has one thing he knows he can do every day to make the time pass. As a side consequence, there may be other kids doing the same thing every day too, and he may slowly fall into interacting with them. If there's truly nothing like that for him to do, I agree with the idea of bringing something small, like a ball or dice or a game or a set of cards or coloring pages or something able to be shared that will be of interest to other kids. (I'd hold off on the book for as long as possible, because that's just going to make the problem of him being all alone worse.) [/quote]
