PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) traits Explained

PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) is a little understood Autism Spectrum Condition.

As father to a daughter with PDA I've learned a lot about Pathological Demand Avoidance over the years.

This is my rundown of the common traits associated with PDA Autism and how I see them reflected in my daughter along with various tips on how to navigate the challenges that often present when parenting Pathological Demand Avoidance - issues such as preventing meltdowns and ways to navigate avoidance issues.

You may have heard of Autism, Pathological Demand Avoidance, and other associated neurodiversities, but do you actually understand what they are, and more importantly, WHO they are?
Autism., Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA), and other neurodiversities are, while widely known, sadly misunderstood. The purpose of this channel is to raise both autism acceptance and awareness by helping to educate with understanding and looking at all facets of autism such as Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD), ADHD, Mental Health, and other related topics.
I am a father to a beautiful autistic and Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA) daughter. My channel is very personal and I'm very open about both the joys and challenges of life with a neurodiverse family and parenting Autism and Pathological Demand Avoidance. Thank you for watching!
