[QUOTE="SRL, post: 206180, member: 701"] Hi indianbrt, and welcome. Some kids simply do better in smaller settings such as home and private day cares, and don't do as well in larger settings. If that's the only thing going on and you have the option to stay home with him, sometimes you can give the child more time to develop before going into those settings. But if your daycare/school options are limited, you might need to do some homework and think through where you want to go with this. I think at least you should have him evaluated by the school district to see if he would qualify for early intervention. It's free preschool (and therapy if needed) and a really good option for kids who are struggling with group settings elsewhere. Do you think he'd do better in a smaller private daycare, and if so, is that an option for you? Does your son seem to get overwhelmed or charged up by the activity around him--groups of kids, noise, lights, etc? Is there any history of mental health issues in the family-bipolar, depression, anxiety, substance abuse, etc? Is there anything else in his developmental history--speech delay (or very advanced speech), feeding problems, etc? Hang in there--we'll see if we can't get you some help. [/QUOTE]
