some kids are just shy.  my daughter is like that when she is around people she has met before.  she has to be around them about 10 times before she gets comfortable.  i just encourage her to speak clearly, look at people in the eye when she speaks to them and make sure she talks insteak of just nodding.

Tell him in a direct way that focuses on how his behavior makes you feel rather than judging him or condemning the behavior. For example, don't say something like, "God, I'm sick of your bragging! It totally annoys him!"\n\nInstead, give him some concrete examples of things he's said that annoy you. Tell him specifically why that behavior is annoying to you. If you can keep the focus on neutral facts and your own feelings rather than accusing him, you lessen the chance that he will get upset.\n\nDr. Barb Nefer, http://www.bnlifeskills.com

I wish I knew why and how to stop it. My teen says "like" every other word. It gets so bad I either correct him or just stop listening. I CAN'T listen to him without counting the "likes" and it makes me so nervous I just want to scream.

It does not seem like he's fully matured yet but then again boys will be boys...he plays childish games.I believe he likes the attention.When you laugh at a childs mishaps they begin to think it's funny and try to do it often to make you laugh!Also,I think he's trying to get in your girls pants...and if he could have it his way he would have you both.He's just waiting for the right time...sort of testing the waters on you both.Manipulate him the way he is playing you girls.Talk it over with your girl.If she likes him then you might as well just let them have eachother.He's not worth getting jealous or fighting over...\nbtw,thanks for the advice on the hills

Voice, face, attitude, tantrums......it's all f***ing annoying.  My 4year old is better behaved.  But, then there's Grace - but don't get me started there!

It sounds like he may have some deep rooted feelings and being he is so young, he is unable to express to anyone properly what is bothering him.\n\nDoes this boy go for any child psychology?  He may need to do this as well as take his medication.  Medication alone, can only do so much.  But with the proper therapy and medication, could mean a whole world's difference for that little boy.\n\nI wish him good luck and I hope he feels better soon.  I hope I was some what helpful!

Discuss the possibility of asperger's disorder with your doctor.  It is a milder form of autism.  Also, he needs to have his hearing checked and to make sure his tonsils are not enlarged.\n\nIf everything comes back fine, get him a Leap Pad toy that seems approprite for his age (there are many).  Sit with him and play and try to find something common between you.  Even if he does not talk to you, talk to him.\n\nHugs

If you feel that by his "silence", he is uninterested in what you have to say about your child, then you should let him know how you feel, irregardless of whether it seems "a little silly".  Forget about figuring out "the puzzle of the male brain" - figure out what your own feelings mean to you and act upon them.

Sounds totally normal to me, embarassing as it is.  I've found the only way to stop losing the plot every time you talk to him is to actually spend more time with him, a kind of practice thing.  It'll also give him time to get his stuff sorted out while you're doing the same

Obviously u don't hate him, and so you should tell him that not everybnody hates him.\nTell him that he has to step up and be strong, and that u are behind him all the way. Anything to get his spirits up!\nAlso, try to convince ppl to not hate him. That should help. Tell them that he is a normal kid and hat he deserves respect just like everyone else.\nBest of luck!\nAnd tell him hello from me, please

Everytime my son says a new word. He is autistic and six months ago they said he would never talk and now he has over 100 words. Sure you can't understand some of them unless you have been around him, but it is still a "jaw dropping" moment.

sounds like your son is a freak. lol

Wow, what a handful you have! He is high functioning isn't he? Well, I hope you go to see the doctor for his mood. Has he always been antisocial? That is pretty much an autistic trait unfortunatly. Just talk to him about it. How is he feeling lately? Try some theapy with a therapist who deals with autism  (a plus if they are also a relationship therapy.) Are there many that you know of? Have you visited his doctor? Talk to his family about it.

My step son is 11 and he's autistic... mild and high functioning but he still has a lot of the autistic traits. My step daughter is 6 and we recently had her tested for autism since she was showing traits of autism as well. Come to find out, she's not autistic, she's emulating her brother. \n\nAny 3-year-old is going to pick up traits from those that he is around. If his issue is one merely of delayed speech, then he needs to be working with a speech therapist. I'm rather surprised that he is placed with autistic children as any health care or educational professional worth their salt knows that young children are extremely impressionable. \n\nHowever, if you have concerns of autistic behavior at all...and if your son has not been diagnosed by a psychologist who specializes in autism, then I would highly suggest you bite the bullet and have him evaluated... if nothing else for you peace of mind.

different phycologies work against different kinds of bullies. Perhaps he acts that way because at home, he doesn't get the attention that he needs, in which case you may try to counter-act his aggressiveness by showing an interest somehow, without giving him the wrong idaea. try asking him if he saw a movie you think is cool, or ask him if he's heard the new thing on the radio, or whatever. perhaps he acts this way because he hasn't run into anyone who'll stand up to him. try telling him-look, bozo-I'm not amused by the five-year-old baby routine, why don't you try something new like acting your age? or some other thing like that. remember, confronting people's negative behavior does not mean you are looking for a fight, only that you want them to get a firm message-back off. try a few different things, but try to be tactful.

it sounds like he had no respect for you, and the next time you prepare a meal for him and he doesn't come to the table throw it in the garbage and continue to do so and until he gets the message or he gets hungry enough to come when you call him the first time. It sounds like he needs to be trained.
