Tricky one this! I changed schools for my ASD daughter as she was having friendship issues amongst other problems at her old school. She has settled in really well into the new school but really struggles to make friends. During lockdown she has been in a bubble with another girl from her class who is shall we say a bit strange, very full on, bossy and quite controlling, as my daughter is what I would say quite vulnerable she has latched onto her and likes her a lot, I have seen first hand how this girl is with her though, very bossy in the park and during a FaceTime call last week was very nasty and upset my daughter a lot. My daughter of course can't see what I see and wants to FaceTime and go for a sleepover with this girl in the holidays. She is very rude to her mum and during FaceTime calls I heard her telling her to F off ! My daughter has started to copy her bad behaviours. She tells me that when they argue at school this girl says horrid things like 'wish you had never been born' 'I hate you' and 'I'm going to set your house on fire' ! Her mum is a respectable teacher and is keen for the girls to be friends but I'm horrified !! Going into year 4 the girls have been put together and I'm worried ! Advice please. How can I tell me daughter to keep away from her ??

Could you explain that this child isn't being very kind to her in a way that she would understand maybe also try to encourage her to talk to other kids from her school that would be nicer to have as friends even if that means going with her to talk to them in the playground
