[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's just your son. Mine is three years old and often coming home asking for a playdate with this kid or that one. [/quote]

Mine is a fetus and started a book club.[/quote]

I don’t know why people are making fun. We started teaching him to ask names of kids he liked playing with at preschool and set up playdates at the park with those kids. Now he asks. [/quote]

Because you said “it’s just your son” like yours is the only typical and everyone else is atypical [/quote]

... but isn't it typical? All my kids except for the one with severe social anxiety were asking for playdates in pre-school.[/quote]

No one is saying it’s not typical - but there can be several behaviors that are typical / expected / age appropriate.  Just because it’s not what your kids did doesn’t make it atypical in the sense that it’s abnormal developmentally [/quote]

To make it easy for you to understand - people might say “people typically prefer icecream, cake, or brownies for desert” and you are acting like people that prefer brownies or cake for dessert are totally atypical because your kids all happen to prefer icecream[/quote]
