i dunno if im explainin it wrong but ppl just dont get it 😞 ds not just bein fussy or naughty when he kicks off bout smells or noises or clothes

its like they think im makin excuses for him but i just want them to understand he cant help it. i tried tellin my mum its like his brain gets overloaded but she just said “well u didn’t like onions either n i still made u eat em”

does any1 have a good way of explainin sensory stuff so other ppl actually listen?? like school or family or even his brothers cos they get annoyed with him too

Unfortunately some people are just not very bright and some are wilfully ignorant. You can't make people understand if they don't want to. School should absolutely understand though - they have training about this stuff!
