Thank you ikambokem, for sharing your own experience with me. It helps a lot to learn more about AS from those who know it first hand. You've helped me more than once, and I so appreciate it. Thanks KBABZ. It's good to know this, especially right now. I was told something today that I needed to disc...

All of you are helping me so much!!

Thanks to all of you. Last night I was watching Fox News (love that pic of Bill O'Reilly by the way) and there was, of course, coverage about the shooting at Virginia Tech. The report was about the shooter's family saying he was autistic. Fox mentioned this website, which is what brought me here. To...

Thank you, thank you, thank you! It's funny you mention the meal thing for dinner. Ryan is a very fussy eater, so I'm limited in what he'll eat. At first I thought it was because he was only used to eating those particular things and nothing else. I would make something he'd like, but also make him ...

I'm sorry, but I forgot to ask a question. Ryan asks about 14,000 (exaggerated) what if questions a day. "What would you do if?.....", "What would happen if?".....". He comes up with a hundred different scenarios of things. Then if I don't answer them the way he thinks I should, he tells me I'm not ...

Thank you for this advice! I'm very guilty of asking him how he would feel if someone said such-and-such to him, and each time he would say that he wouldn't be offended. So I greatly appreciate your giving me a glimpse into how his mind operates with that situation. It makes sense, and I never thoug...

Thank you KBABZ and Tim for the welcome! Ryan is mildly Aspie. His biggest hurdle at the moment is his speech. I think his brain works faster than his words came come out so he sometimes starts to stutter a bit trying to get it all out. He also tends to add "uh" after many words. He'll say No-uh, or...

Hi everyone. I just came across this website, and haven't gotten to look through it all yet, but I knew I had to become a member right away. I am the legal guardian of my 9 year old nephew. He's in the process of being evaluated by a psychiatrist, so we don't have the diagnosis quite yet, but the do...
