| Hmm. I agree with those who have said that she should stand up for herself (this does not mean she has to use violence to do so). She might not be able to control how the bully acts but she can try to control how she herself perceives the situation - and not let it get to her, especially since she ... |

| Um...lemonvariable, how is any of what I said naive? I know from personal experience that violence solves nothing, and that kindness can make the world a better place. I am an optimist, so we may disagree about some things, but I don't think I was being naive. I agree, InsomniaGirl. Every action ha... |

| First, thank you so much for posting this. Speaking out is the first step to solving a problem like this, so well done. It's great that you want to help your daughter because it shows that you really care about her. I definitely think that, if you can, you should teach her. It's evident from what y... |

| My kid who has Asperger, is one of the most hard working and intelligent people I have ever seen in my life. I strongly believe that, because in the past, I was teaching math and science in high school and while doing my doctorate in engineering, I worked as TA in several engineering courses. This y... |

| Also, someone told me that, sometimes, Asperger is a blessing, because Aspergers decide with their brain not their heart, so they never fall in love as we do, so they are immune to having broken heart or being deceived. Is this true???? I just can tell you how it is out of my point of view. Most of... |

| they are immune to having broken heart or being deceived. Is this true???? If anything Aspies are much more prone to deception as the majority of us don't understand as to why people lie and assume the person lying is telling the truth. This is partly due to our lack in facial expression perception... |

| Someone that I was talking about my worries to. A psychologist who was trying to help me to understand about my daughter. This psychologist needs to be reevaluated on what Asperger's is(and probably all ASDs). I hope this isn't your daughter's psych and if she is I'd recommend you get a new one. No... |

| If you have Asperger, How did you deal with the problems and situations in adulthood, how was the situation at work? How did you manage them? Managed them mostly through alcohol, unfortunately. It's very stressful to be so close to "normal," yet different enough that you constantly feel l... |

| Tell her to take her things to the washroom with her and put them on the floor. It is not very sanitary, but that's what I used to do. Then, she can bring her stuff into class with her and this troll of a girl cannot knock them down. This troll will eventually stop doing this. If she continues, you... |

| Yes, these kids are "easy target and unable to fight back". But if you shoot someone who has no gun in his hand, you would be called coward. So, fighting someone that is unable to fight back, is the lowest of low. |

| I chose "no" because I've never been bullied in the school. But I've a kid with Asperger that has always been the target of bullies. Even in high school, it became so bad and physical that for her safety, she had to stay and study at home for 2 years. |
