My son has had exposure to the social skills program "Superflex". Superflex is a character that defeats bad guys like "mean jean" and "rockbrain". My difficult child thinks it's fun to learn about the characters and he can tell you what to do if given a social problem scenario, but put him IN that scenario and the frontal lobe is down for the count. I think the flexibility of the people around difficult child during those brain-freeze moments has helped him be a teeny bit more reflective. Most often though, his mood/anxiety/irritability get the best of him.
