[QUOTE="InsaneCdn, post: 607283, member: 11791"] Given what you already know, and the behaviours you describe above... I'm guessing that maybe you should start reading up on how to parent kids on the spectrum. She may or may not qualify for a formal spectrum diagnosis but... we found that what works for neuro-typical kids does NOT work for spectrum kids, but what works for spectrum kids doesn't hurt a neuro-typical... so there isn't much to lose by trying. The explosive outbursts are likely the result of overload. It won't necessarily be the 'trigger' event that is really causing the problem. You may find that you have to really simplify your life, reduce the pressures, remove as many triggers as possible. Strip life down to the absolute basics, so that she can cope. THEN you can look at teaching her - slowly - how to handle specific situations so that your world can grow again. [/QUOTE]
