My son was diagnosed just over four years when he was 8. During a parenting course I realised that I too am possibly autistic. Now we are awaiting an assessment on our 8 year old daughter. I always believed her behaviours were learnt from watching her brother, but the older she has got the more confusing it is becoming. We are also wondering if an element of PDA might be playing a part with her. My husband is really struggling with all of this, living with 3 people possibly with ASD. I worry one day he might resent me as it would appear the gene has come from me.
