    Long-term NT-Aspie Relationship: Is Invalidation Normal?

    Father of an Aspie son, I can only say; stop being a victim. He is made that way. You can't change him. He can adapt for a while, but will go back to himself eventually. If you love him? Analyse his challenges and take on a supporting role. Don't judge him, or critise him. He lies cause he does...

    Almost non-existant IRL social life

    I can fully understand. I look after my son and guess? I am his best buddy. Have introduced him to number of Artist, who are aware of his challenges. He communicates with them regularly. Frds?

    Speech Disorder

    rollerskates, Thanks for your reply. I was wondering why some children undergoing speech therapy at 2-3 years age, with everything else going perfectly well for them, suddenly start regressing (speech regression)?

    Share Healthy Asperger's Syndrome Coping Skills

    Social interaction used to be a nightmare for my son. He has somehow managed to deal with it; I find him now quite comfortable in big gatherings. He just avoids small talk. He says, he creates a superficial identity and pre-plan every social event he has to attend. The problem he faces is at...

Secondly, I am here to learn from you all how to better communicate with my 32 years old son, who is an Aspie.. Sorry...
