My oldest is autistic my youngest is not
I am 29. my husband is 34. we've been together for nearly 14 years. our son i 12 and is moderately autistic. (autism for those that dont know is a developmental disorder and comes in all different ranges. also...1 in 150 is diagnosed with some form of autism) my daughter is 3 and is almost the exact opposite of my son in every way. well im having trouble with my daughter lately. she realizes she can manipulate my son to get her way. she gets him to give her the junk food i keep up the highest cabinets, she gets him to bring her things...u name it. on top of that i nearly had her fully potty trained except my son still has occasional accidents and pooping in the potty is a real problem issue for lots of autistic kids and so she sees this and thinks its ok to have accidents also. if there is anyone out there that can relate and help im all ears. there is absolutely no one i can call for help on this. everyone i have spoken with all give me the same answers which amounts to nada.
