[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, can you send DD to daycare or camps over the summer? It could be a couple of times a week for a few hours, depending on what's available. You're acting like that playgroup is the only chance your child has to socialize. Get out and see what else is there. There is not point in clinging to company if you feel unwelcome.[/quote]

We cannot afford it right now and DD would do terribly.  [b]She cannot even sit though one 3 minute storytime in a gym class. [/b] [/quote]

Read that again to yourself, OP. And then ask very thoughtfully, "Why would the other playgroup parents maybe not want us around right now?" She is just not ready to be in a group for playtime.

You need give it time and maybe practice at home with her focus. Reward her for sitting with one toy for 3 minutes before giving her another. Praise her for listening quietly to a story for a whole minute. Give her practice at sharing "you play with this toy for a minute while mommy plays with this toy and they we will switch....we'll take turns!" (She won't know what this means at first and may have trouble with it, but she will get there when you model for her.)[/quote]
