Hi all, I've not posted before, but could really do with some help and or advice. Our daughter is 5 with ASD & Moderate Developmental Delay. Her behaviour is getting really difficult and it's causing huge issues between myself & my Husband. She wants me in the room with her at all times, I can't even go to the toilet without her screaming & shouting for me, and me being able to leave the house without her is a no go. We have a Son too, he's 12, her behaviour is having a huge affect on him, he barely speaks & very rarely even tries to interact with her. How my Husband & I are still together I really don't know.

  • HI there, hello I am new on here too. 

    Your email really resonated with me, as having similiar issues with my little boy (aged 5) really severe separation anxiety from me especially at bedtime.  It wears me down as he screams and scream if his father tries to tuck him in or do the bedtime routine.  He always has to be honest, but this causes o many rows.  Husband feels I am giving in and rewarding his behaviour, I see it as being his constant, and supporting him through his anxiety.  I am baffled as to who is right or wrong but I cannot leave him to cry and scream :-( 

    so if you do find the answers please share them!!
