Children have difficulty with social skills for different reasons. Some children appear as they don't want friends but really, they do not have the necessary skills to engage in the process. Some children have friends but for some reason the relationships do not last or end in conflict. Others want friends but are riddled with anxiety/low self-esteem. This group assists in identifying and developing key social skills including but not limited to body language, conversation starters, reading between the lines, eye contact, knowing when/what to share, jumping into conversations and building self confidence in social situations.
