To SeaBright....My daughter is a follower, which does not make me happy. And she does not recognize her gifts and talents. Self esteem. We did ban this boy for several months, but she found a way to communicate with him. This whole situation is distressing my family. We are trying to have her see ho...

To crazymom, I am also mentally exhausted at the end of the day tying to get around the lying or anything that are "triggers".  I do try to keep it together for her sake and mine, but I am human.  I have lost it and I regret when I do. To triangular trees, I do have to be literal to her.  Sometimes ...

To seabright....food issues. Wow. That is a biggie! Basically a white diet. Protein and carbs. No veggies or fruit. Food cannot touch. She needs her own dishes and shelves. People around her cannot eat certain food. Hates restaurants, food smells. Very careful with what we cook. She does not have fo...

Thank you all for your answers....it does help with other points of view and gives us "food for thought". To postperson.....it is true that lying can be in degrees. "Little white lies" are a part of everyday life and that is difficult for some to understand, that everyone lies to some degree. The go...

She does have an amazing imagination...something to consider. However, she can be really convincing! Some see right through her, but many believe her.

To asplanet....yes, we speak to her and she denies it! We do give her space and don;t hang over her.

To postperson...yes to manipulative. By lying, she is manipulating the situation. Not really to getting others to do her work for her.

Yes, here are some examples. She told someone she does not have any cool clothes because we won't buy them for her....huh?? We beg her to go shopping or we bring some stuff home or order online if she cannot handle the hustle and bustle of the stores. An outright lie. Or she also told someone else t...

Some are lies, definitely and some are gross exaggerations of the truth. Some anger and some depression. But she really seems to believe the lies. She does not seem to want to fit in and goes to the extreme so that she does not.

We are new to this forum. So glad we found it. Our daughter is 17 and was dx about 8 years ago. She has always been very honest when younger, but the last few years we are noticing that she stretches the truth and many, many times just outright lies. But it seems like her lies are really what she pe...
