[QUOTE="tiredmommy, post: 294572, member: 1722"] Thanks for the reply, SRL. Duckie's current retort is "Oh grow up, A!" This is pretty effective with A because she is one of the youngest kids in the grade while Duckie is one of the older kids. It helps that she and I have been practicing social interaction since Duckie was very young. She does the tone and eye-roll perfectly. :rolleyes: I am concerned, though, that Duckie is at a social disadvantage (so to speak). She does [I]not[/I] have play dates every day... she just can't hold it together that well without a little down time thrown in. A, on the other hand, has play dates every single day. Bff calls around (she actually has a list) and sets stuff up so that A and her brother have someone to play with. Personally, I think it's nuts and fuels some of A's difficult behavior. She will have an absolute meltdown if her brother has someone to play with and she doesn't. She had a four hour play date yesterday [I]before[/I] the birthday party. I figured the party was Duckie's social time and had her spend a little calm & quiet quality time with me during the day. [/QUOTE]
