Thanks and how to deal with overly aggressive affection

[Guest guest]

I want to say thanks to everyone for your comments on this subject. Every time

I read something, I feel more and more comfortable with trying new things and

exposing my daughter to more and more. I used to be scared because the hint of

something new and we would have a serious breakdown. She would curl into the

fetal position and it would be over for the day. We have learned some of her

" triggers " and its gotten a WHOLE lot better as she has gotten older. It has

also gotten a whole lot worse in other areas. How does everyone deal with

constant nagging and bothering and overly aggressive affection towards siblings,

family, pets ect. For example, dd will continue to bother her sister even when

her sister tells her that is enough and to stop. DD says " I just love you so

much, I want to hug you and hug you " . Then she kinda goes into a sensory

overload (hugging herself and rolling on the floor) and starts in on everyone

else.

Thanks - Angel
