I have aspergers syndrome and been happily married for 6 years so the answer is yes. No one's perfect and most people are screwed up in one way or another anyway.

I give tons of credit to parents of those with autism. The person who is making light of it is just trying to jerk peoples chains and is not worthy of a response. He is so ignorant it sickens if you take him seriously. But he is just trolling looking for responses.

You've missed my posts in other threads concerning this issue. My friend has a severly autistic child, now 28, and still the character of a child. There was nothing cold about my post. My friend, our friends and relatives have learned to deal with it and not to be too morbid about it.
There was no offence intended.

Sorry about that
I took it differently than you intended
I am fortunate to not have to deal with a loved one with autism but it is plain as day that it is no picnic in the park for those that have to be the caretakers.
I don't think one can really quantify what ailment, disease, affliction or whatever is worse..

It's OK. There is a condition where something can affect people som much they engage something in the literary and visual arts called "comic relief". We all need relief or we would go nuts!

I'm now have a one year old in my class that may be autistic (he's being evaluated for a number of things). I keep hoping that something we do during the day will be meaningful for him. The only thing he currently responds to is bubbles. His mom is awesome though. She came in at lunch time for the first few days to get him used to it and to help us figure out the best way to approach meal times with him. She's very honest about what he can and can't do. It's been a struggle to have him with the seven other kids we have in the class but it makes it much more special when we se him try to pop the bubbles or start paying attention to different toys.
I'd like to know why more children are being diagnosed with this then ever before....is it because we have better diagnostics or is it because our environment is creating more children with these issues.
I'm going through a tough time with my own own son right now...I've paid out loads of money now to actually find something wrong with him so I can say ok hes acting like this because he has this.... I'm wondering if its a separate test that perhaps they have yet to do on him...because he does things and doesn't even think of the consequences. and he is so overly sensitive.... it drives me nuts at times.

Yeah what drove me nuts was reading your gobbly-gook posts for 6 years! :crazy:

I know in the past, a lot of people who were autisic were labled as mentally retarded. I think a big push came in the late 70s/early 80s when the Individuals with Disability Education Act was passed and people realized that a proper diagnosis is the only way to help somebody.

There was no diagnosis when I was a kid growing up, I was always just a bit weird, found it hard to cope with life, rebelled a lot and ended up with zero self confidence and a lot of trouble seeing that I found violence the only way to get myself respected. Wish I could have found about this years ago!:nod:

you sure about that
Check the time stamp
Last time I looked that would be Thursday when he posted.
not sure of his time zone but frankly I don't give a shit because below is MY proof.
Uhhh--I think you misinterpreted Lumpy's comment--He said it "Redneck Friday" meaning the "Friday" theme was Redneck. It didn't mean that it was actually Friday when he posted--often people will put the Avitar up as soon as its decided!
But he does have a good point--all you need to do is take a picture of yourself!!!

How about we get this thread back to what it's really about or leave it?

It was about 4-5 hours intensive questions with me, my wife and my mum and was pretty much like an autobiography of my life.
