My daughter won't talk to people she doesn't know
4 Comments

My daughter is 7 yrs old and when we are around people she doesn't know she won't talk. If we have guests over and she doesn't know them she goes silent. Me and her have our own special eye language to communicate when others are around and she's silent. But her dad hates the fact she won't tak to people she doesn't know, me I have no problem with it. She's normal at school and at home sometimes you can't get her to shut up, but when others come around she's silent.Is it weird that she doesn't talk, I don't think so but her dad thinks its something wrong with her.
Do you think it's normal?

I used to be the same when I was a child around that age. I turned my head at some ones hosue and hid inbetween my parents and refused too speak. So it is normal to do it.

In my case I do remember it clearly I think it was the fact I felt overwhelmed and intimidated and scared. I don't know why but thats just my experience but too me it is normal and I don't see a problem with it =)
