[QUOTE="timer lady, post: 330476, member: 393"] [SIZE=3]This is very typical in adopted children ~ their initial sense of abandonment & such play into this. Saying that, you don't need to play a game. With my tweedles, husband & I set up a 2nd & 3rd television in the living room & watched them play video games while we hung out (they each had headsets). It really worked & every now & then kt &/or wm would invite us to play. Is there any attachment issues? Attachment disordered children will do everything & anything to push away the primary caregiver so they will not be hurt or abandoned again. They aren't even aware of what they are doing - almost hard wired. At the same time they need to be the center of attention doing whatever it takes; from hours long tantrums/meltdowns to nonstop talking & inappropriate laughter. There is a need to control all around you & what better way then to keep you going with nonstop chatter? The big thing is to be in the same room interacting on your terms. Get a big box filled with rice & beans & let him go at it. Very sensory & calming for a lot of kids. Just some ideas for you. [/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
