| Here's what people benefiting from our Aspergers advise are saying ...
"I subscribed to this Community about a year ago in hopes of finding support and sharing experiences with other parents who are also given the challenge of nuturing a teenager/young adult who has been given the two-edged gift of Aspergers.
I have found immense rewards of being allowed to be part of this Community - mostly in articles, antedoctal reports from other parents and the always helpful comments and suggestions of Dave Angel.
If you think that your family are all alone in this big old world struggling with something you don't understand, the Parenting Aspergers Community is a lifeline."

""Hi Dave, just to let you know and other mums out there, that your website makes you feel your not alone and isolated, I can send a mesage anytime, and help is there very soon, thanks for your help Dave"

"The Parenting Aspergers Community Web site has helped me with my difficult journey as a parent of an Asperger child. It is comforting to know that when I have a question or having a problem with my Asperger son that I have an incredible resource at the tip of my fingers.
I can post my question or problem on the Parenting blog for all the Parenting Asperger Community members who have Aspergers children also, to view and respond to my question or problem. Within minutes I usually have some great advice from parents whom have had the exact problem with their child and has given me invaluable advice from their experience.
Also David Angel the Founder of Parenting Aspergers Community will always monitor the advice given and give his expert solution on what I need to do to address the problem. I can honestly say that I get more out of Parenting Asperger Community website than what I would ever get from my son's Psychologist or Psychiatrist.
This website is an incredible resource and worth the membership fee ten fold! You won't be disappointed but pleasantly surprised at all the website offers.
All the best on your journey"

Behavior - Strategies for working with different and complex behaviors
One of the most challenging aspects for parents of children with Aspergers is being able to understand and work positively with a whole variety of behaviors that their child may display. These behaviors can range from dangerous and challenging to more bizarre and seemingly quite strange.
In this department I will outline a number of real life behaviors that your child may well be displaying. Then I will look to explain what the causes are and how to work more effectively with those behaviors to give both you and your child better results.

How to discipline a child with Asperger's that won't listen?
Finding a way to punish bad behavior is often an issue for families dealing with Asperger's. Discipline for a child on the Autism Spectrum cannot be handled in the same manner as for a typical child. The parent must maintain control while the child may be completely upset, in a rage, or totally unresponsive. However, the child must be disciplined in order to learn from his mistakes. What is a parent to do? . . .

How can we control the anger management issues that my child with Asperger's displays?
Anger can definitely be a problem for children with Asperger's. Anger management is something that you will have to teach the child since social language and emotional responses do not come naturally. Your child, like many children on the spectrum, may be dealing with a number of emotions that he cannot explain. We know that stress and anxiety are major issues for children with Asperger's Syndrome. Here are other problem emotions that can manifest as anger. . . .

What are the best strategies to use when dealing with temper tantrums and behavior for children with Asperger's at school?
The classroom can be a very challenging environment for children with Asperger's. Behavior problems are common and sometimes come as a surprise due to the high academic ability most children with Asperger's Syndrome exhibit. The classroom teacher must be educated on the characteristics of Asperger's in order to guarantee a successful school year. In addition, the teacher must also learn how Asperger's Syndrome presents in the individual student. Unfortunately, academics will suffer if behavior problems are allowed to continue and the entire class will be affected. . . .

How to learn and adapt better coping mechanisms for my child with Aspergers?
Basic life skills do not come naturally to children with Asperger's. Coping skills, daily living skills, and organizational skills must be taught in an intentional manner. Unlike typically developing children, children with Asperger's Syndrome are unable to learn these skills completely by observation and instinct. Your child simply cannot make the connection due to his lack of the ability to understand how his actions affect other people. . . .
