[quote=Anonymous]I’m a little bit confused, OP, do you suspect that DD is on the spectrum? I haven’t been in exactly your spot, but I can tell you how I have handled similar issues with my kids- times when I knew they were going to wear or just do something that would make them a target for bullying. I just explained why people would likely make fun of them, validated feelings about that not being right, and let them choose what to do. I approached it from a very neutral perspective on my part. These became good conversations about how to be yourself, when it’s worth it to you to do something unpopular, and that conforming to some norms you don’t like doesn’t mean you have to change who you are.
