Hi, I have six kids, two with aspergers and I have aspergers too. We have the same problem with noise, I can only listen to one voice or sound at a time. There are so many similarities and an equal number of differences you will notice with people on this site, but there is also a lot of helpful adv... |

Hey, it sounds like you are talking about me! Welcome to WP, looks like you found your way home.
We have a lot in common, the faceblindness, loud music, smells - this site has been a huge discovery for me.
Be proud of who you are.
Tom

Dunno about wisdom, more like experience really. Last week I put up a page on Facebook explaining about my aspergers and what it means to me.

Hi Kimmy, I wonder what part of the planet you are on? I can only tell you about what happens here. I live in Wales, UK and I have six kids - two are autistic and both are in mainstream classes but also receive good support, so they get the best of both. Both are boys, 9 and 12. The 9yo is ahead of ... |

Hi, my name's Tom and I've been on the wrong planet all my damn life! I'm 52 and have aspergers, two of my children have it too. We live in Wales UK.
Most of all I want to learn what it's like for you, I've been a bit isolated from other aspies and have a lot of questions.[b] |
