I so enjoyed watching part of the documentary, and thank you Alex for starting WrongPlanet.
I need help with something. I have become very good friends with someone who I 99% suspect has undiagnosed Aspberger's. He is 46 and has all of the classic signs. My concern is that he has a son who is 22, and I strongly suspect also has Aspberger's. My friend cannot understand why his son does the things he does, has no friends, moves at a uncoordinated snails pace and is fixated on things such as Ninja Warriors and the Roman Empire. They get in the same huge arguments all of the time and it is going nowhere!
My question.......how do I "suggest" that my friend might indeed have Aspberger's and that his son might have a more severe(if that is right word)case of it? Is there any reading that someone might suggest that would help me help them?
I would REALLY appreciate any feedback from you. |

To be honest, I don't think you can/should. Its something his son should figure out himself if he wants to. |

I hope the next movie will follow up on this, and really show real solutions for K St and Congress to really make policies in our favor. 
Like perhaps, as I thought after watching the video, more support for homeschooling or alternative/specialized schools for Aspies/Auties could be publicly funded? Just my ideas. |
I hope that G-d hears you...I just had a hell of a day at my daughter's school. Just when I think I made a progress, I am down on my knees again...getting raped AGAIN (figurate speech...sorry for the crude expression, but I know first hand the feeling of being raped, it is actually less painful than suffering/being afraid for your child).
My poor daughter is been asking me to homeschool her for a long time now, but I can't do it, she IS learning in public school and I am just afraid that I would not know what I am doing homeschooling her, but the school barely knows what they're doing, so...
I was yelling at the school social worker today...I am ashamed...I am just fed up of the same lame excuses, the same insulting bullying things that are said to me, I am sick of them second guessing the doctors diagnoses, my observations, calling my daughter "rude" (hell, if I would be her, I would have kicked major butt there with what she's going through...I actually have a lot of respect for my daughter's self control)...the social worker asked me if I want to go back to my country if I don't like the schools here (??? doesn't that qualify for PURE discrimination??? or just cruelty???)...it was just a sad circus. I think that the social worker is having a lot of amusement at my expense. She told me that she knows how I feel (as a nurse, I NEVER told any patient that, it one of the most ignorant/disrespectful/cruel thing that you can tell someone that's suffering). That is when I exploded in tears...how can such people even be allowed to have a job?
Anyway, I hope that G-d hears you. I know my daughter will make a difference, she will be the second person with AS I know that will write about that particular school and bullying...hahaha...I will see the social worker then, when she will be immortal in a story...it's not done till the "fat" ladies sing...lol... |
I dont post on here much. But I think you should know about online schooling that is paid by the state.The child works with real teachers and you only help as something as a coach. My brother is doing it now and he is learning way more than he ever did in normalpublic school. The only thing is to see if its covered in your state. I hope things work better for your child |

| I really enjoyed this little video, you should do more perhaps! All the movies that I've seen about aspies have been severely exaggerated. I saw myself in this video. |

I've watched this several times and have really enjoyed it.
I still think you need to be thinking about a feature.
