Is it normal? Obsessing

[Guest guest]

My daughter Riley is 13. When she was a baby she loved to be held~Cuddled~was always touching me.Very loving girl. We have had a really hard 2 years in Middle School with the teacher I have been up to the school so many times calling to complain about things she comes home and tells me what is said to her in the class room. I could go on and on.. Changed meds has been doin some better... We have been over to my friends house so i can tan and Riley has become obsessed with her... Talks about her ALL THE TIME..... Can't wait to see her can't wait to go to her house they text all the time cus my friend thought i would be good for her to have that social.. so did i but she has went from one of my friends to another.. Actually it's an aunt an a niece. She misbehaves at school and spent all day in the

office. This obsession gets really bad when she get hooked on one person.. and has that motor mouth syndrome!! I ask The Lord for strength on a daily bases.. I'm really at a lose with her. I told my mom that i felt like a beaten wife she is so mentally abusive it's like i can never do anything right!

Thanks for listening>>>>

The part that is most distrubing is that you feel abused. Kids with

AS do get locked into various things or people and they do talk

alot about their interests.

I am not sure about the friend, how old is this friend of yours

that is texting her all the time?

Kids with AS do like to have their routines to cope. So

having a set time to talk to this friend may clam your

daughter down.

You can set up a behavioral point chart for respectful

behavior towards you. Praise and reward when she is respectful

no matter how small of a step. Have the reward meaningful

like an hour of TV. If she watches 2-4 hours of TV or computer

a night make it a new rule. You get 1 hour of computer

for going to school. Another 30 minutes of texting for

good behavior at school and 1 hour of TV for respectful

to Mom. Of course change these durations of time and rewards

to fit your lifestyle but the point is she has to earn her

electronics. We all make the mistake of giving our

kids assess to things that could easily be earned for

good behavior. I am not an expert but I have

been paying for one the last 8 months now.

I hope this is of some help.
