I'm a neurotypical mother of three children, the oldest of whom is 6 1/2 and was diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome in October. My husband, while reading about the diagnosis, has come to the conclusion that he is an "Aspie" as well.

I figured that since I'm surrounded I should probably do more than just read books on the topic, so I'm here to learn and get some support.

Welcome nicurn,'

With that odd combination I do not think anyone is like you. Maybe if you also had rabbits?

The youngest about was ubbyubbyubby, he was six, now seven. The Kids' Crater is just a bunch of kids that act like children. Their plan of world domination is so cute.

Welcome to the playground!

Some of you may know me from Autism Speaks message board. I was just banned from there for a week. I have set up a thread there called Welcome Wrong Planet. I am friends with Zarathustra. I just became friends with lastcrazyhorn last night before getting banned this morning. I am udiagnosed HFA although I have never discussed that there because of the extrem predjudice of autistic people on the board. I have a beautiful HFA son and an * month baby already exibiting signs that he is on the spectrum as well. I am the victim of bias on AS boards because I do not support a cure. I am also the number one poster there. I am happy to be on this beautiful message board. I would like to thank Alex for making this board. Thank you very much Alex!

Hi, This is such a friendly place. I am glad to be part of such a great message board. Thank you so much for the welcome. Freesmileys work here as well? Do you just copy and paste? I really like the format here. It is a nice setup!
