| 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"

I get emailed virtually every week without fail by parents wanting to know how to improve the social skills of their child with Aspergers. This is a huge issue for children and their parents; because it's such an essential skill for everyday life (whether at home, school or in the community).

Whether your child struggles in the way he/she talks to people, needs help in making friendships, cannot pick up social cues or needs help in understanding instructions it's all covered in this section.

Aspergers Social Skills - Are there programs or techniques I could follow to help my boy develop better social skills?
Asperger's Syndrome causes what is referred to as "mindblindness" (sometimes called brain blindness). Mindblindness refers to the inability to understand and empathize with the needs, beliefs, and intentions that drive the behaviour of others. Without this ability, children with Aspergers cannot make sense of the world and they go through life making social mistakes, convinced that they are right and others are wrong. They cannot connect their own needs and intentions to positive or negative consequences, at least not without help. . . .
