Expert advice?

Hello NAS80535,

I'm very sorry to hear that you have been having such a tough time with your daughter. Individuals on the spectrum can often display behaviour that may be challenging. There will generally be a reason for this and it is important to try and understand the trigger for the behaviour when developing strategies. You may like to have a look at the following link for more information on behaviour and strategies:

 You may be interested in seeking some professional support regarding the behaviour. You can search for professionals in your area we are aware of on the Autism Services Directory:

All the best,

Thank you for your advice. We saw an Ed psych yesterday and she believes our daughter has severe ADHD - 1% working memory. He behaviours are as a result of being in constant fight or flight mode as the teachers keep shouting at her and sanctioning her
