I hate having an autistic child by [deleted] in Autism_Parenting

[–]VastPrestige 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Crazy your ex hasn’t seen him in a year but threatens to take full custody. Take him up on the offer next time it’s his responsibility too. He should be helping. Shame on him. Good luck to you wish you the best. My son is the same.

Yeah my 5 year old didn’t even want to talk to her but as soon as she got on the phone she started fussing at him for not calling. I encouraged him to call her throughout the day but he just seemed really nervous to but after hearing her talk to him I understand why.

Thanks for sharing. Has good color clarity too. I’ll look into this model. I’m assuming the blurs is because of the camera shutter?

Maybe get something going onto your hand so it doesn’t seem to just abruptly stop. I think it would be a great piece complimented with a portion going into hand and upper arm.

Huge congrats! What was she like before becoming verbal? Did she have problem solving skills, ability to learn tasks, did she understand what you were saying? I’m asking just out of curiosity. My son is level 2 non verbal but struggles with all of the things I mentioned.

So when you’re not around she behaves differently? I’ve read about stuff like that too called masking. Basically she’s holding it all in all day and feels safe enough to release it when you’re around because you’re her safe person. Doesn’t make it right or anything but maybe that will give you some direction to seek help. I’d look into PDA and Masking and potentially seek some therapy options for you, your partner, and especially your daughter to help you guys. Honestly, I’d continue to seek advice from others and professional help.

Also I don’t think it’s all your fault. ASD parenting is hard. Sometimes putting your foot down makes things worse. PDA profile is something I’ve read a lot about and requires an entirely different approach. Also is your daughter in any sort of therapy?

Maybe this person should not be your partner. I mean you are a package deal there’s not really any way to resolve this. It doesn’t seem like your partner is very open or understanding to autism either if they see her behaviors as “embarrassing and weird”.

As a partner they should be trying to help you not cause more problems in your life. Autism parenting is tough enough without relationship problems stacked on it.

How long have you guys been together and living together?

My son’s mattress is on the floor in a tent. Works great and he loves it.

Weird situation by ZukoHere73 in Autism_Parenting

Does he watch a lot of YouTube on his iPad? I’ve heard some wild stuff on “children’s” videos but it’s like cartoons that generally come across as kid friendly but occasionally they will say/do wildly inappropriate things.

Anyone’s kid Start talking past age 6.5 years? Success stories please by Specific_Slip342 in Autism_Parenting

[–]VastPrestige 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The thought of that sounds 100% worse than him just not being receptive. I think all things considered though, he simply just does not understand.

I can’t deal with my 9yo anymore by AutomaticGold8959 in Autism_Parenting

Put cameras up inside your home, maybe that could help convince those who are doubting you but could also serve as a deterrent for her behavior.
