[QUOTE="HaoZi, post: 513925"] *hugs* and good luck. As J gets older more talks about appropriate behavior and self-control on his part can help. Kiddo and I came up with phrases to clue her in to when she needed to tone things down without others knowing that she was being told. Whether it's a phrase that only has meaning to you two or is in a language that the others don't know, go with what works for you, but it's worth trying out. For us it's "Can you help me?" in Russian. Be on hand, but part of the background, unless you're needed. Ask if you can help with set-up or clean-up, to get to know the parents and give you an excuse to hang around the other grown-ups and be part of the scenery. It doesn't work every time but if you try it let me know how it goes. [/QUOTE]
