Suppose that your daughter should prove very unenthused about accepting you in the role of life-skills coach and became rejecting of your suggestions for "work around modifications" to improve the quality of her life. Suppose she goes into complete denial about her autistic-like tendencies. Where does your relationship with her go from there? If she utterly refuses to alter the way in which she compiles her daily "To Do" list, can you tolerate (or "indulge") that? Or might you limit contact with her?
