Some of the best learning expe- riences for your children during the new school year may occur outside the classroom. Learning to get along with other people is one of them. As your child's social arena expands to school, they will begin to recognize the importance of being accepted and having friends. Children want to have buddies and be invited to birthday, slumber, and other parties. Everyone wants to be accept- ed. It's a desire that begins early and continues through life. Some children are more social than others. Their sociability depends largely on temperament, an inborn personality trait. Children who meet others easily or laugh a lot may seen to have an advan- tage, but that's not always the case. Meeting others easily at an early age may actually make it more difficult for an older child to meet others later on. They will not have practiced social skills or had to work on friendships early on. A child doesn't have to be a social butterfly. Their concept of friendship is different from that of an adult - and developmen- tally progressive, as well. As a preschooler, a child isn't likely to have a good under- standing of the loyalty and trust that are part of friendship. At the ages of 4 and 5, a child can enjoy playing with others, take a break then re-engage. At 9 or 10, a child usually develops a greater understand- Ang of loyalty and some of the obligations that are attached to friendship. As a result, having another child announce, "I don't want to be your friend," can be a painful experience. During middle school years, children may pair off or form groups or cliques. Being a mere- ber of a clique may increase a child's comfort level or sense of security. It can be bothersome to children who are not included. Parents have little control on this one and are advised to con- tinue to encourage the child to be friendly to everyone. Give the child time to figure it out. Adolescent friendships typi- cally can have an intensity that is different from adult friend- ships. Adolescents may have a large circle of friends or prefer just a few. Either can be accept- able - it depends on the young person. As a child gets older, their choices will evolve. Some, such as whether to experiment with drugs or alcohol, can have serious consequences. Parents are encouraged to make their homes open to their child's friends, yet remember that their teen needs to develop their own social skills. When rejected by friends, a child may try to earn accep- tance by acting out. It's natural for parents to want to protect their child, but also important that parents, not "muddle it up." There are some circumstances- if a child may be harmed, for example - in which parents need to intervene. Allowing a child to work through social behaviors can help in the development of social skills. Parents may not always, be pleased when their child says 'No'. Nurturing the child's ability to evaluate a situation and know that he or she has a clear alter- native - choosing to say 'No' - is important at any age, but partic- ularly so during adolescence and young adult years. In nurturing a child's self-respect and social development, parents share the message "we care about you" to their child.
