[quote=Anonymous]My oldest, my son, would be exactly like this. He’s been nervous and said he’s not going to every first sports practice he’s ever been to. This includes the new season of a team he’s previously been on, with kids he knows already there. We have had screaming matches in parking lots. Not my finest parenting moments. He’s always had anxiety and went to therapy when he was younger. It didn’t help. We have to force him to try new things. My younger child would be able to join without any issues at all. Kids are different. I understand a little because I’ve always had a bit of social anxiety. I’d rather stay home than go to any new situation. I was the kid that cried all night before the first day of school. No therapy but I know as an adult I need to force myself or I would never do anything social. [/quote]
