Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA)
PDA (Pathological Demand Avoidance) is widely understood to be a profile on the autism spectrum, involving the avoidance of everyday demands and the use of 'social' strategies as part of this avoidance. PDA individuals share autistic characteristics and also have many of the 'key features' of a PDA profile.
Here at Fledglings, we have curated a collection of items that may be beneficial to a child who has PDA.
