Hi
I'm in the early stages of getting my daughter assessed for autism. As I've said previously this is all new to me to with the help of her school and my support worker I'm doing as much research as I can to help her.
Anyway she is due to stay at her paternal grandparents house on Saturday. I have mentioned to her grandmother about her diagnosis and what we're going through and she is good and has taken it on board my worry is her grandfather has no patience with his other grandchildren and has been known to shout which upsets my daughter.
Don't get me wrong I've raised my voice a few times but I am trying to teach myself new ways of speaking.
How do you guys manage things when your special children stay somewhere overnight?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated x

Can you speak to DD’s GF? If he can’t make adjustments and it upsets DD it may be that sleepovers without you/DD’s DF don’t work.

Thank you for your reply
Unfortunately he's not very approachable. Me and my daughters dad are divorced and he doesn't see her (his choice) but her grandmother has always taken an interest that's why I stay in touch
I just wondered if there was anything I could do to make her time there more relaxed x
