Hi there, i am new to the forum.

My 3 year old daughter was diagosed with ASD on Monday.

Although i kind of knew, it still came as a bit of a shock.  We think she may

also have some sensory issues, so we are looking at investigating this.

Would be nice to meet parents in a similar situation.

:)

  • When u say it's hard not to be hard on yourself. I totally get that. At the moment I'm working but I'm fighting with myself because I'm wondering whether I give up work and concentrate on my children because my 2nd child also has special needs. I feel guilty because I feel that they should be getting more from me which I can't seem to give while working full time and trying to manage the behaviour of the 2. Also trying to get time off for appointments and things isn't always easy. I hope you find the booklet helpful. I have ordered the book that you recommended, as you said, hopefully it will give me a better insight into the way he feels.
