| 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."
Judy Berry Florida,USA
""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"

Aspergers Young Children - Help and Advice for Parents
This department of the website is for parents of young children with Aspergers up to the age of 7. Often in those early years the challenges can be around recognising certain symptoms that could be Aspergers, how to gain a diagnosis, beginning to negotiate the education system for your child, discovering what Aspergers actually is, and working with certain behaviors.
In this department I will cover the topics mentioned above, and a lot more besides, to give parents the chance to learn and discover what you need to know about Aspergers in young children.

How to help children with Asperger's understand their condition; it is difficult to help them understand that they think a bit differently!
Many parents struggle explaining to their child what it means to have the Asperger's condition. Technically, Asperger's Syndrome is a medical diagnosis and that can be scary for a child. The name alone sounds complicated! Since the assessment process is usually non-threatening due to play therapy evaluations and lack of true medical testing, your child may be a little confused. A younger child may seem unaffected by the diagnosis, while an older child may benefit greatly with a little more information. It is important that your child is involved in his own medical and psychological care plan from a young age. . . .

There are varying opinions within the Autism professional community regarding disclosure of diagnosis. Many young children can handle full disclosure, while others will need careful handling. Too much information at the wrong time may cause additional stress for the child. Too little information may cause unneeded frustration and self-doubt. As the parent, you must use your best judgment when making this decision. Here are a few additional thoughts on this subject. . . .
