So we have had a diagnosis for #2nd son. It's not Aspergers like #1 son, but "Classic" Autism. This explains so much. It means I have to change my life to make things easier. So it's lists, time tables and the regimented life from here on in. ( Or until he's comfortable enough to adjust).
I am just so fed up though. I am giving everything, being patient, explaining over and I still get the stroppy attitude. I haven't even been able to make a conversation without a moody shrug. Yes I know that's kids for you, but we have discussed home schooling from September.
FML feeling very sorry for myself.
daughter has one who is also retarded and suspects her other boy may have
Aspergers. It takes a world of love and patiece so vent here and find a
support group. There is help out there. See if Ability connections
can get a lap top for both boys. It helps a lot.
