Hi, I am a sister of a boy with ASD and I come from China. Over years, my family suffer from ASD. My mother keeps training my brother in life skills and personal hobbies (like piano, dance, painting). She is very emotional and shouts at my brother every day. I think my brother is gradually being tamed and losing his confidence. He will ask for our permission and suggestions for those easy things, for example, if this shirt needs to be washed. I am tired of my parents and feel empathy for my brother.
I have entered the forum for several months, but I have not noticed any article written by siblings of people with ASD. I would like to know about other siblings' experiences. Am I alone?
