Hey everyone!
So my son is nearly 3 and has always been quite ''sensitive'' when strangers would look or talk to him. It's 100 times worse when they touch him.
We've been taking him to a playgroup twice a week and he is doing quite good at interacting with others. However as soon as another mom talks to him he goes insane. He screams, throw himself on the ground, hurts himself (bangs his head on the floor or hit himself) or if he happens to be in our arms he will hurt us and screams murder like someone is hurting him.
It is very difficult to deal with this... I don't really know what to do or even what to say to people. For now, I just say I'm sorry he's in a bad mood this morning or he needs a nap...
Do you have any children that are like this? Or were you like this ? (still?)
I could really use a few tips... I wanna make him comfortable with others, because obviously he isn't...
Ps: this only happens with adults, he doesn't do this when it's a child he doesn't know.
Thanks so much xxx
