[quote=Anonymous]Hi OP - I also come from a family of Asperger people. I didn't know this until very recently. Many in my family have it, with the most recent 2 generations having confirmed diagnoses for multiple family members. Had I been informed, or known there was an inheritable genetic basis for this, I would have been more prepared for my Aspergers child, felt less alone, less scared... made different choices? Maybe. I don't know what you do with this information/revelation you have. I struggle with whether I should "share" the same info with extended family so they can be prepared as well. I have no answers for you or myself. Just wanted to acknowledge that while some are shooting off answers w/o being in this position, that I am in the same/similar position as well. I have not disclosed to more than a very close circle. [/quote]
