momsparky, that is brilliant, thank you. We are looking to locate depending on where can provide the best services for him (selfish, but we have to look after him when we can!) In a public school, do you have to pay for Aspergers provision at all?

Another question here. My sons diagnosis in the UK has been met really well. In the USA, would the school accept him on his current diagnosis and would i have to pay for the extra support (in a regular Texas DFW state school)?

Please help, we have no idea how the US system works at all.

i recently got the lp's out as a blast from the past and despite the clicks and pops etc it sounded much better. the general public were 'conned' into accepting cd on a sound quality basis-where really the bandwidth/resolution of the lp is only limited by the size of atoms used in the medium! yes, i...

read it,made me smile. the world is a sh*tty place at times and 15 is a tricky age, everyone copes in a different way. i agree with fraya, he did lay it on a bit heavily but at the end of the day it is fiction and for an NT to pick it up and relate to christopher (they may not relate to more subtle ...

in the middle/frodo, i read your posts with a nodding head (and the rest of the thread for that matter!) but they certainly struck a chord. since starting pre school my son has done/said things that are pure AS. in those early days we (as most people on here) blamed ourselves for being bad parents. ...

looks like people are finally realising (hopefully) that the school system does not adequately support ASD children (suprise,suprise!) http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/education/5350506.stm
