DD has some issues with Dyspraxia and processing, to be quite honest I think she probably has Aspergers too but we were fobbed off on that one. She struggles socially, has social anxiety, sensory issues and often upsets people with her bluntness.
She is almost thirteen so I thought this would be the best place to post.
She used to be such a lovely girl, we were very close, now she is spiralling out of control.
She kicks off at the smallest of things, this morning I told her to get breakfast, she did not want breakfast so she smashed the bowl down on the unit and threw a spoon across the room.
She has hit me, pushed me, tried to slam door on my arm because I was trying to stop her coming in my room when she had been sent to bed and she was kicking off, she throws things at me, she screams the house down, she lies to me, she tells me one thing and school another. She is well behaved at school but there have been issues. School are very supportive and there is no bullying.
She says sorry and then continues to scream abuse at me, tells me to shut up , screams I am annoying. I go out of her way and she will try to follow to carry the argument on. If I tell school what she has been like (she often has meltdowns before school) she goes beserk.
This morning I took the dog out and walked a different way to the school way as she was kicking off and she followed me kicking off all the way and then blamed me for her being later than she wanted.
She will not back off, she has no stop point, if I was in massive trouble with my Mum as a child I would keep my head down, not her.
She will not engage with anyone for help.
All I get is ohh well I get angry.
Angry If she has been asked to pack her bag for school.
Angry if I have not yet done her packed Lunch and she has to do it
Angry if I ask her to do anything
Angry if she is in trouble for something
Angry if she has to do anything but sit on her backside
Angry If I asked her to move the mouldy yoghurt pot she has left on the radiator with the bottom of the curtains in it.
I cannot do this anymore.
I am a single Mum with health problems and work and no backup.
