Just curious really, having an ASD child, (undiagnosed until she was 10) I find it extremely hard but cannot really pinpoint what is so hard. It is frustrating trying to explain to family and friends that every little thing is difficult, like getting dressed, washed, going anywhere, everything is a battle, that can result in her losing the plot and me shouting to get her to JUST DO IT. And that she can be so anxious and stressed with NORMAL things, that she cannot keep friends as she is demanding exclusivity and gets too intense.
Here are some suggested organisations that offer expert advice on special needs.
