[QUOTE="Angela41, post: 571696, member: 14703"] Just for the record, many/ most of your son's behaviors sound like my newly minted six year old boy at that age. My son has a probable anxiety problem and (possibly) mild ADD, combined with some lagging social skills and probable giftedness. The causes of his behavior (especially the anxiety) weren't apparent until he was 5 1/2 and his behavior improved drastically when he started kindergarten. I would take your son to a counselor who might specialize in "play therapy" (I.e. increase frustration tolerance and social skills building). Let him/her know your concerns and ask if a full psychiatric evaluation is warranted. [/QUOTE]
