Hello everyone, I'm adora.
I'm new around here.
I'm the mother of a 5yr old son, who may have AS/ASD.
I'm in the process of getting him referred to a center for screening.
I'm from NC, USA.

Welcome! I've learned a lot here. I think it is a great resource for parents. Sometimes the AS adults can be very blunt, and you may not alwasy agree with what they have to say, but all of it helps you understand the unique thinking that is AS.

Hello! I'm the random 22yo with no kids who still remembers growing up with AS and posts here randomly to help other parents see 'our side' of things. Welcome to WP!
