[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 607886, member: 805"] [FONT=comic sans ms][SIZE=4]I agree with InsaneCdn. J needs to be in controlled social situations where you are within ear-shot. It's all about learning the skills he's not equipped with naturally. ADHD kids, like Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), do have social issues - my son is a prime example. At J's age, impulsivity can be a huge issue. medications helped my difficult child with that. But so did controlled social situations and role playing. He has to be taught. You can't let him just "run free" and expect typical kid behavior. I made sure that my difficult child had play dates at our home where I could intervene and either use teaching moments or "change the subject". For many of our kids, social skills are a huge deficit. Power for the course..... *Sharon [/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
