"I read this article and I have the exact opposite problem. I have a 7 year
old daughter who never shares, when asked how a field trip or Birthday
party went she simply responds 'good' but details on anything are non
existant. I know that she talks freely in school with her classmates and
teachers, sometimes too much so why does she not talk at home? We have a
secure solid family unit, stay at home mom little brother who she adores
but yet when it comes to asking about her day or events she is very non
committed, good fine, and once in a while you will get a it was cool there
was a ... but seldomly. Sometimes I get the feeling that she finds it hard
to remember what happened throughout the day. Is there any information I
can read to help her with these recall skills.
Thanking you in advance

"I have a very happy go lucky 9 yr.old son. He struggles with being
overtalkative. He will go may be a week or two doing well in school not
talking and then the wheels fall off of the wagon. I am trying to get him
to be responsible for his own behavior. He is a very smart boy, gifted.
Do have any suggestions that may make something click for him? I am
trying to find some way for him to understand."
