My Daughter has been diagnosed with ASD. She has decided that she doesnt want anyone to know except a family that have been close to us for some years. im not sure that this is the right thing to do although i havent told her this. She feels she needs at least one person to understand. My daughter is very very well behaved and in one of the top sets at school so i worry that they will not believe that she has this problem. it totally makes sense to me, and as i too suffer (and have told noone) i think having the diagnosis can only help her at this time. Has anyone else had this? the reaction of others not being accepting or understanding? really worried for my daughter in case this back fires on her and she ends up hurt.
