Following the life of a teen (and his mom) with AS....
Regular readers will have met E already - today she wrote a post on looking toward the future with her late teen son M after an extended spell at a private school/facility on the West Coast. Aspergers is not a joke or an excuse for strange kids ...it's a real, life changing diagnosis that rocks a family to its core. I love you E and encourage anyone trying to understand hidden disabilities a little better to go read what she has shared today as well as other posts under 'update from the Wolf den.'

Hi Dorothy,
Thanks for linking to this. My ASD son is only 3 but I'm starting to prepare myself for a very different life. I just finished reading "As I see it" by Temple Grandin, a well-known PhD author who battles autism. She writes about her social struggles and sensory issues. It was an eye opener and I'd recommend it to any parent or adult whose life is touched by Autism or AS.
