[quote=Anonymous]Pathological Demand Avoidance isn't in the DSM or ICD. Getting upset when routines are disrupted (including by parents "demanding" things) is a pretty typical autism thing. Disruptive or defiant behavior is also commonly seen in autism and adhd, also sometimes characterized as ODD. These behaviors can be addressed through parent coaching/behavioral therapy. I wouldn't get caught up in the diagnosis of "Pathological Demand Avoidance" because it's not going to really give you any additional insight or guidance. [/quote]
