My 7 year old (girl) had a friend over yesterday. We live in a SUPER small town so everyone knows everyone AND their issues:-) This girl and my daughter are pretty close, so the playmate is also aware of Asperger's. In a 7 year old way, I've tried to explain to the girl that means that my daughter h...

Most of our travel has been two-ish hours on the plane. I do soooooo much stuff I'd never allow on a normal travel experience. I'll do dvd players, read the same book umpteen times, buy headphones from the flight attendant for the novelty of it, lollipops or some other hard candy, allow them to drin...

Oh, holy hell MissTippy...so true...so true...

I have a 5 year old son with AS, too!! ! His social interactions are so incredibly different than my daughter. He'll walk up to a stranger and instead of just saying, "Hello!" he'll run up to the stranger and throw himself on the ground!

My daughter is 7 and we have our first neurologist appointment on December 21st. Some days I don't even know if I'll make it that long! She has been receiving different therapies since she was 4 years old. This year in school (and home) have been such a challenge. I hate the idea of medication, but ...

In some ways I think I'm the luckiest mom in the world...I recognized my daughter was developing differently than her peers and had her evaluated/diagnosed before she was even 4 years old. So when her brother came along 2 1/2 years later, I recognized the signs even earlier. My daughter is now 7 and...
