Advise needed

72513

Hi Im not sure if anyone would have any suitable advice for me but would love some if you do. 

I have been going through court proceedings to see my daughter for 6 years now. During this time mother has a private diagnosis for asd and the professionals during proceedings agree with it. 

The issue thats arisen now is that my daughter says she doesn't want to see me and there is no reason why. Mother says this is a asd thing and when she doesn't want to do something they cant force her which also happens for drs/hospital appointments and also some missed days at school. 

I am having difficulties rebuilding my relationship with my daughter so dont really know what to suggest in respect of asd.

Any advise would be welcome Pray

Thanks

Sean

  • You could try writing to her and sending photos of yourself, places you've visited, your pet(s) if you have any, to try to build a relationship with your daughter.

    If you were intending taking your daughter out, ask your wife if you could visit her at home instead, as she may be uncomfortable about leaving her home.

    Also ask your wife if she can keep you updated on what your daughter is doing and send you photos of her until she feels ready to interact with you - so you feel you are not missing out so much.

    I wish you luck

    Thanks for this, I have done the whole sending letter and photos for over 12 months and mother wasn't really helpful in encouraging engagement.

    Mother doesn't know what to do so I am just looking for extra ideas and thought someone might have been in a similar position.
