So what's second nature for one individual can be torture for another. Before addressing any of these conflicts with your child, ask yourself what your natural tendency is. It will help you be more patient in the areas where you differ. Help create non-threatening social situations where he can become confident of his social skills. But don't make him feel self-conscious if he wants to spend time alone.
Many successful people are introverts.
You can help your creative kid succeed by recognizing how hard it is for him to do detail-oriented tasks well and by rewarding him for accuracy. Insensitive kids are tuned into logic and facts, making politeness a challenge for them. Help them become more considerate by explaining how their behavior makes others feel. Reward them heavily when they exhibit sensitivity. For others it's an alien act.
