[quote=Anonymous]That's tough, OP. I feel immensely guilty that I get WAY more annoyed with my Aspie and severely inattentive son, who doesn't have a mean bone in his body and is super gentle, than with his normally-developing sister, who talks back and bounces around noisily. It's so draining to have to repeat myself a thousand times, and explain all kinds of things that should be obvious to any normal person, that it's a relief when I can have a functional relationship with my daughter, and use verbal shortcuts and non-verbal gestures to rapidly make myself understood. Sometimes we don't even communicate and we still understand one another. I do connect with my son on academic things. He's the little professor type. It's just all formal and regimented and typed out in triplicate.[/quote]
