Hey!
My 13 year old daughter is in the process of autism diagnosis and I’m really concerned about her risk taking behaviour. She has become friends with a group who regularly drink vodka in the park and she tells me that she doesn’t like the feel of being drunk but doesn’t want to lose her friends or become ostracised.
We set very definite boundaries with her and she currently is not allowed out with these friends but we can not keep her from going out forever, and I know that the minute she’s allowed out again, she will continue with these behaviours.
She has absolutely no comprehension of danger or risk management!
Does anyone have any advice or has experienced something similar?
TIA
