Help dealing with DD, 7 ASD [title edited by MNHQ]

Wasn't sure where to post this.

DD is 7.5 and is such hard work. She's so negative about everything and moans constantly. All she wants to do is go on her iPad. Made such a fuss when we were out for a walk that I actually turned round and took her home. She was crying and shouting that she had a headache. It was embarrassing to be honest.

She refuses to join any clubs so doesn't have any hobbies.

I'm actually crying right now as I'm so fed up. I love her so much, but I'm starting to not want to be near her

I doubt lockdown is bringing out the best in anyone. It's hard.

What's she doing on the ipad?

If it's games could you try boardgames?
Talking to friend - organise a quiz for her friends?
Any tv shows you could watch together?
