[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A therapist pointed it out and it makes sense - dc (who also has some neurodiversity) has a lot of the hallmarks of this. I feel SO BAD. I feel like this is something babies in a chernobyl adjacent orphanage have! I [b]have gone out in the evening maybe 20 times in the 10 years[/b] of dc's life and pretty much constantly parenting or working but also had no idea what to do with a baby when i had him. Anyone else's kid have issues like this??? such guilt[/quote]

This was your problem. Your kids never learned you leave and come home it’s NBD.[/quote]

Oh, sure! Her kid would not have ADD and ASD if only ONLY OP had gone out MORE. You deserve a Nobel for that insight, PP.

OP, few no what to do with a baby with their first.

Your DC has a lot of issues around interaction that are due to the diagnoses you name. Grieve that and move on. To the extent you &/or DH have the same, you can try to learn new parenting techniques unique to those issues, would help the whole household. But won't make DC not have ADD and ASD (and seems the 2 of you also share ANXIETY, often comorbid).
