I'm just wondering if there's anybody here who's child lacked or struggled in the social skills/friendship making department when they were about 5 or 6 years but then eventually flourished further down the line...

My son who's just entered year 1 has one really good friend which is brilliant. But I've noticed that when we go to the playground after school he's basically ignored or scowled at by some of his peers from his year. Sometimes they seem very keen to play with his friend but not him. It breaks my heart.

Hes a happy outgoing boy but struggling a bit with the sit down formal education element of year 1 and the more nuance part of friendships

What's he like when he interacts with others? When you say sit down part of education, is he disruptive?

He can be quite excitable bless him

@username3678 hi, no not disruptive because he's getting some lovely support from the teaching staff.

But I'm mainly looking for people who've experienced something similar re the friendships and come out the other side
