[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As the parent of a kid with ASD, my mama bear came out often.  My job is to protect him and help him grow.  When he's not in a place to learn and grow, I didn't take him.  If someone was in his space, I would physically intervene and remove him from the situation.  That often meant driving 2 cars so one parent could stay and one could leave.

DS is 15 now.  He has no problems setting his own boundaries.  He understands his frustration tolerance level and can articulate it.  It takes time and maturity.  Letting gma constantly invade his space is teaching him that you are not his safety net.  And while gma maybe facing her own declining issues, she is still the adult in this scenario.  She needs to deal with him being removed.  She can get pissy about it but she's probably not changing her behavior either. [/quote]

I doubt grandma can change her behavior anymore than he can.   Don’t always assume it’s only your child who has issues or who is uncomfortable and as a result might act inappropriately   [/quote]
