Is this Aspie on WrongPlanet?

Post Reply New Topic

I'm not asking to go searching everywhere on WP for him with limited information, but I am curious if he knows of this resource.

I know this boy who's three years my senior who has Asperger's. He's adopted, as is his younger sister (she's a year my senior) and is friends with my brother, two years older than me. The boy doesn't know I'm autistic. He isn't the smartest or socially adept and he is often the butt of jokes (as am I) and I feel sorry for him. One time, my brother tricked him into thinking that putting salt on a snail would make it grow. His sister picks on him a lot while my brother and I are around. We're family friends and our families sometimes go up to our vacation houses near a lake during the summer.

I wonder if he knows about this website. Outside of older members of my family (my younger cousins don't know) and two friends (plus family friends), people don't know of my diagnosis. I learned he has Asperger's because my mom/brother told me.

Sorry, apparently I am stalking you today (just kidding, but I seem to be replying to a lot of your things today...but never fear..I am not a creeper, I just look at the title of the post and decide if it might apply to me or if I might be able to answer. This applies to the second category).

Anyways, just tell him about it. There is a really good quiz online to tell, and until that he can still post on here. There are people who post here without a diagnoses, it just depends on if they feel like they should be...so it's his choice.

I don't mind, chrissyrun. You're an interesting person to talk to. Stalk my posts all you want.

Anyway, thanks.
