Twins have language disorder and anxiety - unsure what to do for summer camp
Hi my almost 7 year old twins were recently diagnosed with Dld and anxiety. They are pretty similar in that they lack social skills and never initiate speaking in school. They take longer to grasp directives and just language in general. I believe the dld makes them anxious to be social.
My question is - I have already put a nonrefundable deposit down for a summer camp. It is a great summer camp and they went last year with no issues except for being nervous to ask to use the bathroom.
My husband thinks we should keep them home this summer but I feel they need to be around a social environment but I also worry they may feel too overwhelmed or anxious. One of the boys anxiety (more so sensory) has been worse. I am unsure what to do. Maybe keeping them home all summer will help since they won’t be so anxious and maybe will help them or should I put them in the camp. It’s so hard and I’m very stressed about it. It’s hard to get anything out of them so asking them does not really work.
