PDA Question
Low-Demand Autism
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
If demands trigger meltdowns, whether it's PDA, anxiety, OCD, or a strong-willed child, this app has help built for you in the moment.
When everyday demands trigger meltdowns, shutdowns, or explosive reactions and nothing seems to work, you're not alone, and it's not your fault.
Whether your child has PDA, anxiety, OCD, PANS/PANDAS, or simply an overwhelmed nervous system, the usual strategies can backfire fast. PDA Question was built for exactly these moments by a parent who lived them.
Describe what's happening and get support you can use right now:
- Understanding: what's going on beneath the behavior, and what helps in this moment
- Script: calm, natural words to say out loud, or use as self-talk
The brain powering this app was fine-tuned exclusively on expert PDA resources, specialist books, and real-world family experiences across PDA, anxiety, OCD, PANS/PANDAS, and overwhelmed nervous systems. It understands these conditions at a depth generic apps simply cannot match. No generic advice, no guessing. Just accurate, compassionate guidance that feels like a conversation with an experienced specialist.
Built for real life:
- Personalization by age (1–25), role (Parent, Teacher, Therapist, or Self), and response length
- Emergency Scripts: de-escalation phrases by situation, with slow read-aloud hands-free support
- 33 Topic Cards: instant offline guides, one tap away
- PDA Dictionary: searchable terms for IEP meetings, family, and providers
- Professional Letters: polished letters for schools and clinicians, with autosave
- Sibling Support: 24+ scenarios with what to say, what not to say, and why
