My dd who has been diagnosed with autism for over a year now and her behaviour has always been somewhat unpredictable and unmanageable and even more so as she has got older. She is more on the medium functioning side so really doesn't look disabled iyswim but her outbursts have become so bad especially with running off episodes and lying on the floor in the middle of pavements that we avoid going many places or don't go very often to things like the zoo (I'm a sahm with 3 other children and I don't drive) so buses or taxis but for all the inbetween it's very difficult as not only is her behaviour so unmanageable now I can't physically carry her but also walking around places she gets very tired and wont walk far. I considered a McLaren major but she is too big and I don't want her to feel embarrassed if her friends see her but I'm considering a wheelchair. Do you think it's OTT just worried about people judging me. Tia
