Im doing it all wrong. No set system. Depends on my energy and mood I'm frustrated and unpredictable. Somedays I focus only the positive and spend time with them and an the best mom and other days I'm so negative and I yell at the slightest... I wish I would have a plan and feel confident knowing what I should be doing so I can stay calm when kids misbehave...
Any book recommendations?
What's the best one?
Is there a specific approach or book for parenting a hf asd child?

Sounds like you could use Good Inside by Dr. Becky. Her methods are applicable to a wide variety of kids, issues or otherwise, and minimal in the guilt department

I'm a big fan of How to Talk so Kids Will Listen and Listen so Kids will Talk. I'm actually facilitating a workshop that they created. It will be starting on zoom soon. Feel free to private message me if you want more info.

I am also a huge fan of how to talk so kids will listen! It taught me so much about emotional awareness (along with Daniel Tiger lol). However. I have a kid who I suspect is a highly sensitive child and the how to talk so kids will listen strategies have been backfiring- when I validate and empathize with her challenging feelings, she gets angry and aggressive. Does anyone here have that experience and suggestions for another approach?

If I remember correctly, since it’s been a few years… Brain-Body Parenting by Mona Delahooke addresses this. I found this book extremely helpful overall.

Dr Becky has totally different strategies for “deeply feeling kids”.
You might want to check out her workshops
