Josh commented on Trultemora's blog post 'My husband got diagnosed this week'

I'm glad your husband is starting to have an easier time with things now. I was diagnosed as an adult too. Until I discovered what was going on, I knew there were situations I just couldn't stand, but I didn't know why. The realization that I was ...

THE QUILT IS DONE!!!!!

Josh commented on John & Tara Bertic's blog post 'Social Stories Slump'

It sounds like the social stories are happening on their own already. I think Jerry and the other boy both learned something today. These kinds of incidents stick. They are real and personal to all parties involved. It just sucks that someone alwa...

Social Stories Slump

Ok, I've known about social stories for quite some time now. I even made one for Jerry once using a great website tool that filled in all the blanks for me and even created a cartoon version of Jerry based on his skin tone, color of hair, and eye ...

Josh replied to Josh's discussion 'Please consider an age appropriate translation of this message for your children.'

Thanks Meg! I was a bit worried that the post may be a little too direct. No parents have replied, so maybe it was. The original person it was directed to responded quite positively. He acknowledged that just because he had problems at school, it...

A question for all you Non-Aspies.

A condition like Asperger's Syndrome can have it's advantages. While doing my own Asperger's research, I found out that many famous people have either been suspected of the condition or even been diagnosed. Some of these people include, Michaelang...
