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

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

  • Hi.  My guess is that your daughter is suffering from anxiety/stress because she isn't getting any support at school.  She comes home + lets it out.  It's quite a common thing to happen.  So it's important you keep fighting for her to get that support.  Check things out via the home page or the ipsea site.  Also she needs to be treated as a 7 yr old autistic child with spd.  There will be info on that via the home pg as well.  I understand it's not easy for any of you, but anything you can do to ease things will benefit you all.  Loads of info also via the posts - just do a search.  I hope things improve soon. Smile
