Ds age15 , is very mucha loner. Never goes out , stays in his room, watches tv, Internet etc . Doing well at school , not grade A but average . Eats well , sleeps well .
Why am I worried you may think ?
Well he is obsessed with me , needs constant reassurance that I love him , needs lots of hugs . I obviously give many cuddles , lots of love , plenty of praise .
Do you think he could be lonely ,I try to get to know about friends of his . He insists he has friends and isn't lonely , but just doesn't want to see them outside school . He does occasionally mention he's not a popular kid!! But teachers assure me he is well liked although quiet .
This morning he got a little angry when I said he needed a shower and as I walked out the door I heard him say ' I'll cut myself ' This scared me I have to say.
He is quite effeminate but grew up in a house with 2 older sisters . Don't think this is realy an issue tho !
