Hi I have joined this forum in the hope I can get some advice :/ I have a daughter (who is now 22) growing up she could be difficult but I was in a violent relationship with her father until she was 5 so put it down to this. She had few friends and seemed to find it difficult pick up on social cues, she would get too close into people's personal space and would stare at people a lot, as of trying to work them out. She found it difficult to share friends/ be in a group. She would also move her fingera repetitively around her face (although she no longer does this) and although a loving child gave few hugs and could be nasty. She can not have the volume on things on an odd number and has to touch things an even amount of times. She also hoards things (empty boxes of cereal etc) when stressed) and at one stage would line up items from tissues to old rappers along the floor in her bedroom, she found school extremely difficult and we had a private assesment done to reveal she had a problem with processing information. She struggles with change And takes things very literally. unfortunately she is in an abusive relationship and was recently assigned a social worker ( as she has a child) for support, I myself work with children with EBSD and was taken aback when the social worker asked me if she was aspergers, I then looked back and began to see this could possible make sense. I feel terrible hat I haven't seen this things before and feel I may have fIled her in some way. I have briefly touched on the subject with her and she was fine but I am not sure what to do :( any advice would be much appreciated please,
