[quote=Anonymous]Two questions for my fellow parents of kids with aspergers. My DS, 13, just got an official adhd and aspergers diagnosis. Did you discuss this with your child? And can you recommend a great book for parenting a teen with aspergers? DS takes adderall already—which helped tremendously—and i believe is aware he is slightly different than the norm. I also think he is mature enough to benefit from a loving but honest discussion about this—and would probably be able to regulate his behavior a little better knowing what the doctor confirmed for me. But, I’d like to hear if possible from other parents who have had this experience and how they broached the subject. I am told by DW that I can be a little blunt in my delivery so I’d like to get it right the first time :)[/quote]
