[QUOTE="Allan-Matlem, post: 370928, member: 10"] Hi, I read that social skills classes aren't very successful in helping kids acquire these skills as the situations are not real life situations. Most social skills are really about one on one interactions. The CPS collaborative problem solving approach promotes social skills of kids by jointly solving social issues and problems , because problem solving and general chatting involves perpective taking , empathy etc. The good news is talking with your kid , chatting etc promotes not only relationship but lots of cognitive skills. So try to find the one on one time to enjoy your kids company and let this dynamic generalize during the day. Even when you need some help from your child or need his attention first connect with him and enter his world , share a few sentences about what he is doing or involved in . After you have made the connection , let hi hear your concerns.
