[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Special Ed teacher here. It would be great if the world just embraced and accepted neurodiverse kids in every way. The reality is that these kids must learn boundaries and social norms.  You owe nothing to the people she is talking to. They will be fine. But for her benefit you need to make it a thing. “Larla, I noticed that you walked up to these people and told them X. I saw their faces and It seems like they were just talking to each other and didn’t want to talk to anyone else right now.”  There is no harm in turning to an adult and indicating your intentions with your voice and gestures. Most will get it. The others aren’t your problem. Keep the focus on teaching your child how to interact appropriately [/quote]

This is OP. I don’t know why I feel like I need to keep saying this but I ALREADY SAY THOSE THINGS TO MY DAUGHTER. Which I have said in every post. I obviously need to just not care what strangers think. Including whether strangers on DCUM read my posts and understand that I am addressing the behavior with my daughter. The question was about what to say to the strangers. And I hear what you’re saying (plural “you”) that I shouldn’t say much or anything to the strangers.[/quote]
