When Our Kids Are Bad at Making Friends
Manage episode 420914712 series 2430667
When we have a kid who just doesn't seem to fit in—or who is a loner, if a fairly content one—it can be hard for parents. But putting our own anxiety about it aside, and getting clear on the lagging skills and social cues that may not quite be in place, is the best way to help kids get on a better path. This episode is full of specific and useful advice!
Amy and Margaret discuss:
- all the reasons kids can have trouble making (and keeping) friends
- five "unwritten social rules" that some kids take longer to comprehend
- how figuring out the specific issues at play can lead to the most useful solutions
