saying No

My daughter is 14 years old and has just been diagnosed with ASD and ADHD.  The main thing I am struggling with at the moment is she does not seem to accept the work no.  If she wants to do something/ wants something she has to have it and does not seem to understand why she can't.  Does anyone have similar problems.

Also do local authoritys have specific help they can offer or courses which should be made available to children/parents living with autism as she seems to have the diagnosis but we don't know where to go from here.  She is currently being assessed for an EHC plan

Thank you

  • Your replies to Marjorie and myself make complete sense to me.  Your son sounds identical to my daughter and I have never been able to say that before.  If is sad but comforting to know someone knows exactly what its like.

    Madam had a friend who she was completely obsessed with, but she has ruined it because she got too possessive and agressive when she had to say goodbye, it breaks my heart.

    She has got herself in alot of trouble with instagram doing what other kids have told her to do so we have blocked it now.  I want her to use social media but she seems unable to do so without complete supervision.  She is always arranging to buy things and sees everyone as good friends even though she might not have met them.

    Good Luck in the new term!!

    You keep strong too x
