Q.

Hi, my son has socializing issues. He won't share his toys with his friends and he likes to take others toys; if that is not given to him he would crank up. Any idea to control this behaviour?

A. At This period brings about more socialization from the child, and they will tend to display a desire to connect with other kids their age. At the same time, they’re not very good at sharing, as their territoriality begins to show itself. There is also still an element of parallel play, as mentioned earlier. Around unfamiliar adults, kids this age might become shy and nervous. Many children in this age group find adults frightening. On the flip side, if they’re comfortable or familiar with someone, they might go out of their way to show them their favorite toy. You’ll hear a lot of “mine,” “that’s mine” and “mine, mine, mine!” Kids aren’t apt to share much at this age. In fact, they’re pretty self-centered at this point in their lives, through no fault of their own — that’s just the way they are. During this stage, children will begin to show interest in persons besides their parents. Some children may not show interest in other people, though. Experts say it’s not necessarily a bad thing. It’s best to allow children to seek out other interactions at a pace with which they are comfortable.
