Tired of attitude, not wanting to play with toys and crying outbursts

jrandall10

Hello all. 

Our daughter is seven and in year two at a mainstream school. She has sensory processing disorder and mild autism. I need help as I feel like I wanna run away as I'm wanting to give up. If our daughter isn't giving us attitude then she crying instead. Don't get me wrong it's not all horrible all the time but I'm lost. Discipline doesn't work and she can't explain if anything's wrong. She gets no support at school and I get no daily feed back from there either. I don't know if she is being a kid or if it's something sensor or if it's her asd. 

She hardly ever plays but loves getting new toys or teddies, I've tried playing with her but she gets cross. Also sometimes I just need time to stop as I work too. 

She hates my hubby doing stuff with her like baths or putting her to bed n I just do it to stop the trauma.

Do we give her some leeway because she has Sen issues or treat her like a seven year old :-(

Thanks in advance Jayne

    Born Naughty is really good IMO, it reminded me of things I did when I was little and they have people who can tell the difference between what is naughtiness and what is due to autism. They also show some ways of dealing with both naughtiness and autism. I think you might find it useful but you may also recognise things in your daughter that the children are shown doing on the programme. I expect you can watch the series on catch-up or 4OD on the internet.
