Social

[Guest guest]

Hi,

I would love any advice on what helped your children with social skills. My

son is doing very well on enzymes. He has no real behavior problems, no

stemming, and really no autism systems except delayed speech and lack of social

interaction with peers. He is quite social with us. I am feeling a bit

lost.

Quite often the kids are used to dealing with adults all the time (my

daughter was). Adults are very predictable. Kids are not

predictable, don't indicate who they are talking to, what they are

talking about, are very impulsive, don't get a child's attention,

etc. It can be very chaotic for a child to understand everything

around them, adults make this very easy. I'm working on taking one

other peer girl my daughter's age, limiting a few things for them to

play with, then prompting the peer on what to say to my daughter,

making sure she has my daughter's attention etc. So it is kind of a

cross between the adult world and the child world. I also, found

another child who is close to the autistic spectrum but more

advanced. His thing is though he will get in my daughter's face and

demand a response so she really pays attention to him and it's been

the best situation:)

Best Wishes!
