I've posted on here a bit about my DD - she's just turned 5, and we think she has ASD, although we can't get a referral because they won't refer here without a letter from her school. She masks very well at school, so they are unaware there is a problem, but are willing to with with us. Anyway, Christmas is the worst time for her - all her routines are messed up, plus she is freaking out about the Christmas show they are putting on. The last few mornings have featured crying and screaming that she doesn't want to go to school anymore. We are still able to get her there, but obviously if she starts refusing completely, life is going to get very complicated, so was just wondering if anyone has any tips for making things a little easier and less stressful for her?
