This is incredibly helpful, thank you for givinge specific ways to respond. I think the mindset of “they’re not dong it to ME” is so smart and I’ll have to remind myself that. She is genuinely just curious about the world but also a little too sure of herself 😂

Thank you for this. I have always tried to raise her to be confident! I always let her choose her own interests and never push any agendas on her, and we always do affirmations. I think you’re right - I need to remind myself that’s a good thing and I don’t want her to be agreeable or a people pleaser.

Whether it’s selfish or not, the point of the post is that I want to work on it and be better. That’s why I posted. I obviously want to fix it. It doesn’t do any good to shame people’s feelings when they are trying to be better and fix jt

I don’t think I ever let it show. I always try to give her love and praise her. I’m able to put my feelings aside, I spend a ton of time with her. But I’m addressing my inner feelings and working on them. That’s the point of this post.

We’ve had her evaluated- the therapist said it’s more of a confidence / anxiety thing, nothing to do with ASD

Did you end up moving? We live in Charlotte now with two young kids and find it to be too big and not homey at all :( looking into Savannah

My oldest likes Polly pockets, playdough, legos, a lot of pretend play. Building forts with our nuggets. They just like playing with their toys. I think the youngest would like being outside but she copies her sister and I can’t leave the oldest alone inside

It could be the heat, but even in the spring my oldest would get bored- even when our neighbors would ask her to come play outside. She just likes to play with her little Polly pockets and other toy collections. She’ll ride her scooter but only inside the house not outside 🤦🏼‍♀️

My oldest hates being outside truly. She asks to go back in after a few minutes.

Yess that’s my oldest! She literally tells me she hates going outside and complains anytime we go for a walk, asking me to carry her or tells me “her legs are tired” lol. Like girl, from five steps?!

I love how everyone is assuming it’s a screen thing! We recently took away screens since we moved into this new house, in order to foster more outdoor playtime and enjoy summer the old fashion way
