Now that he knows he has asperges and has read up a lot on the subject he understands himself better and is better able to cope in situations especially other childrens perception of him.I feel truly blessed to have him in my life and do agree that the world would be a much better place if everyone saw life the way he does.

I struggled a lot with some of the basic things that came along with aspergers such as the awkwardness, eye contact, and focusing on one subject for a long duration of time. I am now 14 almost 15 and have little to no symptoms. I am a freshman in a college prep high school with a's and b's.

As an adult you can articulate your thoughts well. A child with Asbergers cannot always express their feelings as clearly but may feel the exact same way.

The only ones I cannot relate to are the sports/physical activity-related ones. Aspies get fatigued rather quickly from having to manually process stimuli, so sports doesn't seem like a common aspie interest. Of course, everyone is different, so some can handle more than others.<br /><br />I have my own blog about AS and wrote a post about fatigue and how we process information. Check it out here if you're interested. :)<br />http://life-of-an-aspie.blogspot.com/2013/10/aspergers-and-fatigue.htmlLushiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14382189169839086175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1527055659904040434.post-61263147281846772312013-06-26T14:54:43.064-07:002013-06-26T14:54:43.064-07:00While some of these were dead on, quite a few are ...While some of these were dead on, quite a few are the exact opposite of how my Aspergers affects my behavior, such as "1. are able to easily forgive others" - I find myself never forgiving those that don't show any sign of actual regret. A forced or fake apology usually means that I will never forgive them for they do not feel true regret, why lie when saying that you're sorry? Rhetorical since the reason for lying is social acceptability. Plus a few other ones that I won't list in the interest of keeping this short. Some other ones, are accurate but they tend to require a bit more detail, such as "34. have exceptional memories" - that is an extreme in both directions. If it's something I care about, I tend to know a lot about it and retain a ton of information on it, but if it's something that I have to fake interest in, then the information will not retain at all (such as birthdays, anniversaries and the full names of people that are not an important part of my life, like neighbors, co-workers and friends.)<br />Anyway, nice list, it was an interesting read, almost feels like someone out there gets it, well I mean comes really close to getting it, which is as close as a non-Aspie can get. :) <---Compliment, not insult (I can never tell if I'm insulting someone.)Tree Manhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08562633078309060069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1527055659904040434.post-86968637989891011352013-05-25T08:13:41.788-07:002013-05-25T08:13:41.788-07:00This is such a great article.

I found your blog post (50 Positive Characteristics of Asperger’s) and was wondering if we might use it at our conference. We will, of course, give you credit and point people to your blog, “My Aspergers Child”.
