I am new to this website. I am the mother of a 31 year old son with Asperger's. He was diagnosed back in the mid 1990's and was one of the first. He goes to school (and never wants to stop) and teaches physics at a university in MO. I am encouraging him to take a look at this site. My 24 year old son believes he may have AS also, but it is not diagnosed. I have asked him "does it really matter?" and I am a firm believer that God does not make mistakes.

Welcome to WrongPlanet!

I'm a firm believer that us Aspies might have some issues that need a bit of work, but that our diverse personalities shouldn't be under discrimination.

Welcome, even if your sons don't join you may find some things of interest. You can read posts from a lot of people here working out their own official or suspected diagnoses, knowing why you are the way you are or just developing the self-awareness of reaction to situations can be really helpful. Well, for some of us. :)
