When a teen struggles socially, it’s rarely about motivation or personality. It’s almost always about missing skills, lagging skills, or skills that haven’t been generalized across environments.
Once you identify the real gap—whether it’s perspective-taking, flexibility, emotional regulation, or that strong sense of justice—you can actually teach it.
And when it can be taught, it can be written into an IEP and supported at school, not just left for parents to figure out on their own.Lisa Lightnerflipped into special needs parenting- Lisa Lightnerflipped into Special Education in the News
