Hadn't really heard of the guy. I haven't been diagnosed by anybody. I'm just a person who goes through periods of thinking myself to be an ordinary person until I have too much stress or have to change something or actually dare to socialize again and can't remember what the person looked like I was talking to yet I know every detail of said person's shoes... After a while I find myself staring at some spinning object or banging my head on the door frame while the kids wreck the place...

It's not as bad as I make it sound, really.

Aussie Boy and Ubby3 have been diagnosed at his clinic and attend counselling. Ivy, the counsellor, has helped in the transformation of Ubby3. She is also counselling Smelena.

Tony Atwood is soon to lecture in France where the current belief is that aspergers is caused by cold mothers.

Cold mothers? We talking temperature or temperament?

I would've thought that your family had had some dealing with him, nannarob.

Attwood can't be that much of an autism God as far as aloofness goes. He emailed me recently when I requested to add something to his website. He told me he is updating and redesigning his whole site by the way.

Exactly. My mother has AS, and she's pretty, uh...cold.
