[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] OP here, thanks for this. You are dead on. Part of the emotional blackmail is "DS1 will really love playing with all his cousins..." despite the fact that he's actually receiving OT at school to help him learn to play with other kids - his teachers keep telling me how he stands on the outskirts of the classroom and is terrified of entering the fray. [/quote] Without knowing your child, I will say as a former teacher who has made similar observations, that you shouldn't assume the same social issues will translate to time spent with family. In my experience children who struggle socially play better with older cousins than trying to enter play with classmates, you also stated you child does well with adults one on one. That leads me to think that an older cousin or family member could help facilitate play in a way that peers at school cannot. This could be a great opportunity for you child socially to help build some confidence.[/quote]
