Also wanted to add, we had our daughter evaluated at the age of 3 by a pediatrician who specializes in ADHD. He really was not much help. He said she did exhibit some characteristics of ADHD, but not all and not enough to warrant him giving a definite diagnosis. He said kids change alot as they grow and that she could just grow out of the awkwardness. I have not yet taken her to a child psychologist/psychiatrist because I don't think putting her on meds is the answer either and I'm afraid that's what they will want to do. That is what happened to my niece (put her on meds) and my husband's mother and grandmother were given shock treatments. None of this cured them.

One other clarification I'd like to make. My daughter does have 2 friends that she plays with in the neighborhood, so she does have some social interaction, but it's not very often and I've noticed both of those kids giving indications that they sense my daughter is different, but they have not acted out aggressively. My daughter has had other friends over the years and been invited to birthday parties, so she has some ability to interact socially. I just think it's getting harder now that her classmates are older and more manipulative. She's also had bad luck with the type of classmates she ends up with every year. Most of her classmates have been boys and the girls in her class have not been good "friend material".
