[QUOTE="Smithmom, post: 740256, member: 23371"] Isn't that what a kid's life is.. Sitting around doing nothing? Sounds normal for a little kid. That is a kid who doesn't want any real friends. So how old is she developmentally? Question then is how do you push a kid to develop? Don't think you can. Need to find something that she wants to do. My story about getting severely autistic kids to interact... Get into her world. Not you exactly. Her world is computers. Get her to reach out to a digital world. She's done that in a video game. Now expand that. Is there a way to find people locally who play the same game? A video game club on campus? A job involving video games? Volunteer work with people who play video games? You've got a plus here, something she likes, it may not be a career now but expand on it. Can you get her interested in designing video games? Responsible teens who love their animals care for them. Kids don't whether or not they love them. So is she irresponsible, immature or something else. Eg my kid with contamination phobia wouldn't go near smelly animal food or within 20ft of animal waste. And doesn't like animals cause they have germs. But he'll never admit it. Says he just doesn't like animals and the rest of it is just disgusting. And if forced would gladly make a scene. diagnosis oppositional defiant. Sure doctor! [/QUOTE]
