hi my name is chevair and i have 4 children. My eldest is 11 and been diagnosed with aspergers syndrome ocd and acute anxiety. I always knew she was special but after having three children when she was six i then realised her way was different from the way the others behaved. I have sent her to a private school in a hope that she would prefer the smaller classes etc but this has not been the case.
I now can not even get her into school as she has major tantrums which start the evening before and until i tell hernot to worry we will leave school for another day then she is more relaxed. Is anyone else experiencing these problems and how do you cope with them. Do i make her go which then leads to her accusing me of not understanding her and she feels like an alien or do i just allow her even more time off school. She is very intelligent but has absolutemeltdown at the mention of school.
Hope there is a bit of help out there as i dont know which way to turn these days.
thanks
chevair
