[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]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]

I think you are going about it wrong. You shouldn't expect her to be NT. You should do some of those things without her, to expect it to be the same as with a NT child is older is ridiculous. Find things that she likes to do and that you can enjoy with her, as she is, and make time to do that every day.[/quote]
