I have a little girl who is four next month and we are currently awaiting an assessment for ASD.
The only behaviour that I struggle with, is when she has hurt herself or is upset. She used to be extremely cuddly and clingy when hurt. But for the last 9-12 months she completely shuns all attempts to comfort her or see if she is alright. You can not even talk to her, she just screams 'No' at you and pushes you away. On one occasion, she was hurt quite badly and I had to just stand with her for over 15 minutes until she calmed down, as she wouldn't let me examine her, talk to her or take her home.
Does anyone have any advice that might help her?
