Drawing on three decades of experience in residential schools, Lavoie provides strategies for teaching friendship skills in the classroom, home and community for children age 6 through 17 with learning disabilities. He explores the causes and consequences of "social incompetence," then offers field-tested advice on how to help children work through daily social struggles and go from being picked on and isolated to becoming accepted and involved.
