| 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"
Lynn M UK
"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 in Girls - A Specialist Subject!
Aspergers in girls has always been diagnosed significantly less than in boys. This has led to girls and their parents being comparatively short-changed when it comes to advice and information. There is now thankfully more information coming out, but it's still a pretty under-researched area. Girls have many different factors to contend with than boys. For example the way that girls make relationships, how they view the world, what happens in their bodies and how their brains are made up all differ significantly from boys.
This department is an ongoing project within the site to bring the best and most recent information about Aspergers in girls. So that parents can find useful sources of information, as and when they need them, in order to help them offer even better support for your daughter.

Aspergers in Girls - Why is it so difficult to diagnose Aspergers in Girls?
Statistics show that boys are as much as ten times more probable to receive the diagnosis of Asperger's. Girls are often left undiagnosed because the condition seems to manifest differently in girls. While boys may have a textbook case of Asperger's Syndrome, girls are more likely to appear normal. Here are a few of the classic characteristics of Asperger's Syndrome along with the differences found in girls. . . .

Aspergers in Girls - What do I need to know about my teenage girl with Aspergers?
As you probably know, it is a little different for a girl with Asperger's Syndrome compared to a boy with Asperger's Syndrome. Often, girls are diagnosed much later in life than boys, sometimes as late as adulthood. The characteristics manifest differently in girls. Because of this, girls may spend years trying to cope on their own without the benefit of any type of therapy or special accommodations. Once they reach the teen years, serious problems can occur. . . .

Aspergers in Girls - Teaching my daughter "right and wrong"
My daughter goes to school and tells them everything (a dear friend of mine is an aide in her room)I try to explain to her that some things are not other people business, may be private or that they most likely would not be interested. But just when I think I may have gotten through to her she will then ask "is it okay to tell them if we bought a new stove?" . . .
