Hi I saw your posts. My 3 1/4 year old daughtre has te hsame lelve of severe panic in groups or crowds. She's okay with me at the grocery store or mall,but a birthday party makes her quiver in terror. Like yours, she wants to shake hands and introduce herself.I've felt guilt becuase I'm home alone with her and her severly autistic older sister. I think we may have 'caused" this fear, but don't know how or how to help her adjust to social situations. She was dismissed from a preschool becuase the director said she wasn't "emotionally mature enough" She's very bright - adds & subtracts, mixes colors and paints people with arms & legs, recognizes the letters and know s words that begin with each letter.... Any help?
Just a quick note to say hi! I was wondering how you were doing. What's the weather like there?
