I'm ashamed there are still people who think of think mental illness (or autism) as a stigma which should be denied and kept secret. That really is the worst possible, most unhelpful, attitude to have.

Actually if you look around the world that is average and by some standards even old.

I checked my inbox, but I don't appear to have a message from you.

That's weird, I actually sent you two. But either way it's okay. I tried to send you a link that would be helpful to you but then after I sent it I tried to click on it and it seems to have been removed from the internet so I was not able to find it again. I sent you the second pm to apologize for the first with the link that no longer seems to work. It was a source to get Tony Attwood's book but you can find it on Amazon or in a reputable bookstore.

Yeah, I know about the young child brides in places like Ethiopia and in Gypsy cultures and other cultures. That sort of thing does not sit well with me at all. I understand it's their culture and I am not going to go and criticize them for it but I don't have to like it or think that it's right. But I do know some girls who were married at 17 and 18 and they have done great so if Maddycakes found the perfect guy and it works for her I think that is totally cool.
