Nice to meet you, mom2bax. :)

I'm Jerry.

Well my parents divorced back in 1998 so most of my life with my mom and dad. I did drive my folks crazy at times when I was young and sometimes now I even do.

CHances are I inherited from my now deceased mother. My father is (slowly) learning about AS and using me as a looking glass to my mother's life. We have an interesting journey ahead, and I wish you luck on yours :D

Yep, though my child is, for all intents and purposes, grown. I was a single parent from the time she was five months old.

I'm the single mom of a 16yr. son with AS, a 14yr. old son, a 13 yr. old son with AS, and a 7yr. old daughter with ADHD/possibly AS. To say my life is busy would be a gross understatement. I treasure everyday I have with them, even the really hard days. They are each so unique. And each have their own unique ways to drive me nuts. :wink:

Welcome to WP! I hope you find the site as helpful and supportive as I have.

Welcome Mom2bax,

I love to read about moms, it makes my life sound so easy.

Welcome and join the fun, what they cannot help with, they will at least say, me too!
