Hello Mark, I recently purchased your eBook " Launching Adult Children w/Aspergers " ...It's nicely laid out/a very useful tool indeed!

I'm beginning to understand his thoughts/ways more and more. I realize that 'patience' is a must and as you stated it is important to keep one thing at the fore-front of our minds...."Everyone has good intentions!"

Adolescents are usually able to manage stressors better, and behavior problems at school may be less of an issue. However the fatigue that comes from this control may lead to the adolescent 'falling apart' at home. 3.

When managing social interactions is difficult, some solitary time can be needed and should not be seen as a 'problem'. 4. HFA is just a label …it’s not a death sentence.
