[quote=Anonymous]OP here- thank you for all your thoughtful insights. DD is 3.5 and has ASD. We have done and continue to work with behavior specialists/psychologists, as well as Speech and OT. I guess these interventions have helped to some degree, but it's so frustrating. I feel that we shouldn't still be having such a hard time with her given all the effort, time and $ involved. We can't see friends, go to a restaurant, vacation, etc without her ruining the experience. Ruining sounds so harsh, but it's true- she ruins our quality of life and takes away from what we are able to offer our other child (NT). I am just so burnt out- I wish every interaction with her wasn't so laborious. There are brief moments when she's not insufferable, but it's not enough. I do try and get help/babysitters when possible, but it only takes a few minutes with DD before I feel I desperately want to get away from her. I know parenting is hard, but never anticipated this type of unyielding misery.[/quote]
