Guest guest Posted May 4, 2010 Report Share Posted May 4, 2010 I have a 16 year old son with Aspergers. He is a freshman in high school. This has been a tough school year, transitioning from middle school to high school. The biggest problem for my son, , is feeling lonely. He does very well in school (all enrichment classes) and does not have any behavior issues. Along with the Aspergers, he has OCD and severe disgraphia (not sure if I spelled that right or not). is one of the nicest kids ever. He is always very considerate of everyone, not wanting to hurt anyone's feelings. However, he feels he does not fit in with the other kids, and when he tries to be part of the conversation, they treat him differently. He feels like the kids think he is stupid, which of course he isn't. I think if he had one or two good friends, he would be much happier. loves playing video games and is very computer savy. I'm trying to find someone else who might have similar interest and could use a friend. I'm not aware of any social/support groups for teens with AS, but I would be willing to try and set one up with some help? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
