GGG, thanks for your reply! Yeah, it's so hard to know what's a real 'thing' or not, especially at 3.5. They're all still so young and trying to figure things out. I haven't seen DS try to get physical with kids but I used to get after him if he was being overly confrontational and I almost wonder if I scared him away from figuring out how to react to other kids. I think he knows what 'not' to do but is a little flummoxed sometimes about how to actually get along and play. Plus no one wants to discuss Audis. smile

I'm glad to hear your counselor recommended the sports teams and thought it would be helpful. DS's best interactions with other kids are definitely usually on playgrounds.
