[QUOTE="Penta, post: 76485, member: 1644"] I find it tough for me now as my girl approaches 19, as she is beginning to realize how different she is from others her age. Besides "being out of the world" as she calls it, for 18 months at Residential Treatment Center (RTC) when she was a younger teen, she also has processing difficulties which make it difficult for her to tune in to conversations and carry them through. She hasn't found a social circle or friends, in the past year....not for lack of trying. So, it is sad for me to watch my beautiful girl try to figure out how to fit in and compensate for her Learning Disability (LD). Some days, I see her as a young adult, others she still seems like a 15 year old to me. [/QUOTE]
