Guest guest Posted October 3, 2010 Report Share Posted October 3, 2010 OMG! This so discribes how I feel so often. I don't think I have one single friend or family member that understands much less even believes that my son has Aspergers. I get so tired of trying to explain why we are having issues with the school etc. It's so frustrating and sad to think how my son gets misunderstood and rejected from the outside world, but when it's family the pain is even worse. Sometimes I truly feel alone in this, but then I read all your stories and I realize we are not alone. I'm not real good at keeping up with the group, with working and trying to get my BA in Psych. I do read posts as often as I can and I'm glad I joined this group. Hugs to all!!!ne From: phrayotte@... <phrayotte@...>Subject: Re: ( ) 10 point Cc: Date: Friday, October 1, 2010, 10:04 AM Wow!
