Or is it just me?
Maybe it's my own problem. but I HATE invasion of my personal space. I loathe people getting nose to nose with me. It makes me want to physically push them away, and sometimes I do. I always move away, sometimes I recoil, flapping my hands between us in a 'back off' motion (Sometimes I say "Back off".) I don't know why it provokes such a strong response in me, but it does. I feel very odd when people do it.
Anyway, ds1 is always doing it, but in a very EXTREME way! Comes right into my face to chant or yell something at me, leans his face onto my head and pushes. It makes me push him away and say "personal space" but I worry that this is rejecting him.
What do you think?
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
SN children
Anyone else get fed up with their asd child getting up into their face?
