[quote=Anonymous]When he went in for the evaluation at 13, he knew what it was an evaluation for, so of course, we also shared the results. At this age I can't imagine keeping from him. That doesn't seem right, because a kid that age will know they are different, and knowing more about how their mind works is helpful. I was so nervous about bringing it up with him, but in fact he'd already suspected it in himself. It was a relief for all concerned. I liked this: https://www.amazon.com/Asperkids-Secret-Book-Social-Rules/dp/1849059152 and my son read it too (though he didn't want to share his thoughts about it) this might be more than you want, but it's also good. https://www.amazon.com/Complete-Guide-Aspergers-Syndrome/dp/1843106698 I liked Look Me in the Eye too, by John Elder Robinson [/quote]
