owl Report post Posted April 16, 2008 Hi, Just to say hello to you all,- I don't even know if I'm doing this right, but I hope so! I am a mum to two boys, 16 and 20, 20yr old was diagnosed when 9 as having ASpergers. Have spent the yrs since he was 6 learning/ reading and supporting him, like we all do. 20 yr old now has car and a good job, but disrupts househould with stress/ relationship misunderstanding, and is still socially vulnerable. Hope to talk to some of you- there was never anything like this - it's fab isn't it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
baddad Report post Posted April 16, 2008 Hi again owl - saw your post in 'beyond adolescence' - certainly a useful area of the forum there for you, but heaps in the other areas too We have quite a few autie/aspie contributors who are,will or have been your son's age, so I'm sure you'll find plenty of support/advice and that your own and his thoughts and experiences are really helpful to them too. welcome to the forum.
