[quote=Anonymous]I would not pull her out of soccer. Exercise, plus learning teamwork is huge for kids especially if you suspect anything like ADHD or ASD. You need to focus on explicitly teaching and role-playing what to do when she has the urge to say something critical. The Kazdin method emphasizes praise and a reward chart. He has a couple of books that we found helpful. See if the teacher would be willing to communicate very briefly daily for a bit on how DD is doing--be clear that you just want a one word answer (fine) if it was a good day and a short description of the problem (accused classmates of cheating at 4 Square) if there was an issue. Focus on reinforcing positive behavior and don't freak out about the negative behavior. [/quote]
