Hello Everyone - my name is Diana and my beautiful 17 year old daughter Larissa was recently diagnosed with asperger's syndrome. My work as a occupational therapist has given me experience working with children on the spectrum but this is different when it is your child. All the strategies and "tools" goes to the wayside and you just become a mom.

Anyway I am hoping that I can meet other parents who are in the same boat and also other teens and young adults who are diagnosed with AS that may be able to befriend my daughter and I and help us along the way.

I have enjoyed looking through the website thus far.
