Adult Aspies need something to do. There are no groups, or get-togethers or any other events or activities planned for them. If they're out of school, what then? Endless solitary video gaming. It's just a shame these older kids in their twenties have no places to bond or make friends, or even meet others like themselves.

I have a 4 yr old son that is non verbal. How do others keep from being depressed when people look at you because they think your child should talk? My son looks like he is a 6 yr old because he is so tall. I'm tired of the looks and stares because he can only babble. Also its so hard not hearing your child say I love you when you are pouring your heart out trying everything you can to help. I long to hear those words.

I've taken away his some of his privileges, i've talked to him trying to find out exactly whats going on and he's just as… read more
