[quote=Anonymous]She had social skills issues and language issues and despite therapy for both was still behind. She was also really small for her age. There was also inattentive ADHD that wasn't recognized until much later. Redshirting didn't really help in the end and we do regret it at times. The lack of social skills was compounded by anxiety which wasn't diagnosed until middle school despite her seeing a couple of therapists for this issue. My feeling in hindsight is they spent more time blaming the environment and what we weren't doing as parents vs. being willing to diagnose anxiety for a young kid. We felt so guilty that we couldn't see this in the moment and just kept blaming ourselves.[/quote]
