[QUOTE="Malika, post: 538142, member: 11227"] Yes, I also vote for encouraging Partner to be sympathetic to V in this situation (sounds like he is anyway). I think if you leave V alone he is not going to interact and play - he needs help and encouragement to do so. And we are all like that, in fact! The inspiration and encouragement of others is vital to us in terms of learning anything. These situations are like a vicious circle; the child withdraws or cannot interact appropriately so is rejected, so withdraws even further, which makes others reject them even more... but what the child wants (because we all want this, I believe, no matter what issues we have!) is to be accepted and to have warm interactions with others. So I absolutely think anything that helps V achieve that is to be used to the max! If Partner is okay with that, of course. Siblings are an asset V has. I understand your concern about kindergarten. You will have to take it step by step and see how it evolves... [/QUOTE]
