[quote=Anonymous]OP, my advice is to focus on what is truly important: changes that are necessary for your FIL's safety and to keep your caregiving situation manageable. If you become his social skills police and pressure him about things like the birthday card, it will destroy an already fragile relationship and make it much harder to accomplish the truly important things. Yes, it is sad that your DD does not have a grandparent who is more sensitive, but that is life. She will go on to encounter many more people on the spectrum, so teach her healthy ways to cope and to not take it personally. I think you would benefit from a therapist for yourself, not because there's anything wrong with you, but you need someone who will listen to you and your DH is having a hard time being that person. That will relieve the pressure on you.[/quote]
