Answer 1

a very good friend of mine has an autistic child who's 10 yrs old and they really are beautiful children,he loves to help his mum bake cookies and cakes he also dosent talk,he is an incrediable child,he often stays up and watches info mercials over and over again on tv and loves to play with the water.His mum works at special school for autistic children and shes an incrediable mother of 5 children her youngest is 4 yrs old. You as the primary care giver sound like you need a break.Do you have respite care where you live.Its like a place where your child can be taken in for a night or two in the weekend,or do you have family members that could possiably look after the kids while you and hubby have a nice night or weekend away??.

You sound so stressed and desperatly need some time out,remember it's your child,shee needs you,and you need to be patient and loving,shes autistic and she's going to be like that forever,but you know what shes incrediable and beautiful and you need to see that-dont be angry with her,take her out to the park,shopping-if shes a handful take a good friend,family member,hubby- for support.

Are there any support groups that you can attend for more advice??,im not an expert,but it would be in your best interest hunny to find a support group in your area.Try google and see what you come up with,maybe contact your local community centre,or even your local hospitals they will have contatcs of different services and groups that will cater to your needs.

I wish you and your lovley family all the best and pray all goes well

Answer 4

She's an autism child ?

My son Thomas pictured left with his twin sister has severe autism he is also non verbal and still in nappies he is 10 ...from what i can make out seems have have no patience at all and if you think that's harsh try living in our shoes its seems she has no routine and you complain about her as if she is a burden to you ..She is YOUR child and you have to do things that will stop her from doing the 'bad' behaviour put things out of her reach ..and why would the police and ambulance come ...seems you want your child to be taken away ..and IF you are telling the truth you need parenting classes to help you deal with Autism cause you have NO idea what so ever !

EDIT this made me mad

i am getting getting sick of changing her diapers 3 times a day. i mean, she's grown girl.

................................she has autism and NO it wont just Go Away !

Answer 5

Have some patience with your child as she is autistic join a support group for better advise

Answer 6

   or you could always have a very serious talk with her and tell her what she is doing wrong?

  try that if that doesnt work then idk im totally clueless,sorry

i hope things get better!

Answer 7

Id suggest social services, I know that sounds bad, But they arent just there to take kids away, They will give you sound advice on what is a available for you and your children in your area, They are actually there to help, They just have bad press. She sounds like she is a right handfull and you need a break, I hope you manage to get things sorted :-)

Answer 8

WOW!!!!!

You need some time to yourself.  There must be some agencies that could help or just to have someone else be with her so you can have a break.  Often the caregiver is the last to get help for themselves.  I can relate to this as I have worked with many persons with Alzheimer's and the caregiver does need a break, time away.

Perhaps there is a summer camp for persons with special needs that you could send her to, giving yourself and your family a rest.

I don't know where you are but you obviously have Internet.  You could do a search to see what's available in your area.

I truly empathize with you.

Answer 9

she dose learn Hun but is locked in her own world   we have a son none verbal+in Nappy's with down syndrome and i must admit we have infinite patents with him .... i think you shud seek help.... in respite it may take some of the strain off you ..get in touch with social services.... its worth asking i would never tell you your a bad mum itm not liveing your life

Answer 10

take everything one step at a time. and most importantly you as the mother be patient and relaxed, I know it sounds impossible but everything is do-able, trust me on this.

does she do any therapy like speech, or ABA, or occupational? the reason I ask is because maybe they could give you some ideas or suggestions.

If not I would make a schedule and take her to the bathroom every 15 min. for her to get used to the idea. give her lots of praise and rewards so to speak. I would also suggest getting rid of the diapers and using underwear of course accidents will happen, but she will feel when she's wet.Make it a game. This takes a lot of patience from you, I know what it feels like to have to go through all of this, and I'm still in pain as of today. but life goes on. Don't lose your faith. I will pray for you and your daughter and family tonight :)

I hope I helped in some way.

Good Luck

God Bless
