Hi all. Hattieo is my wife, Ethan is my son. I have to say I feel incredibly torn by the aide thing. Sometimes I think they help, and sometimes I think they don't.

I'm depressed because of what AS takes away from me. Yes, I understand that many, if not most with Aspergers don't have the same kinds of feelings I do and many seem downright stoic, but I feel a kind of instinctual pressure to seek friendship, have a family, etc. These are desires that 99% or so o...

One song that always works for me is "If You Were Here," by the Thompson Twins. It gets overshadowed by some of their other work, but an excellent song. Another that I love is "Overkill" by Men at Work. In more modern times, Colin Hay has reworked it into a really nice acoustic song. http://www.yout...

For example, in response to "How was your first day of college", they'll respond "Good...

Hi, new here. I have to say of all the boards I've read, this place immediately resonates with me... I finally feel like I can see a lot more perspective. Anyway, we have our 5-year-old son, Ethan, in grade K in a very nice private school. It has a huge garden (life lab), is a block from the ocean, ...
