Thank you for your comment. I have known 3 other "kids" with WS. One is a 30 yr. old girl, daughter of a friend of mine. Teenage years are getting to be a little difficult. He isn't the always happy little boy who always minds anymore. We have him on Lexapro to help with anxiety. He is still a delight to us. The biggest problem is not having friends. At his age the other kids don't want to play with him. We have had a lot of name calling and bullying. The school tries to handle it, but you can't catch it all. Our little boy 4 brothers and sisters, but they are all grown. Loneliness is his biggest concern. We have to watch him then with grownups. Any adult who shows they like him, he wants to become their buddy. We fear the results of adult "friends.
