[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was just reading this in the Relationship threads. https://www.dcurbanmom.com/jforum/posts/list/1110436.page [/quote] the OP in that thread appears to be sincere. But then there are some usual suspects who claim that their husbands are “extremely charming” “very successful” and yet autistic (diagnosed by the wife of course). These women are using “autistic” as an insult to describe their jerk spouses. [/quote] Mine was diagnosed when our second child was 1. We were both expecting adhd and a stimulus rx. Lo and behold now we know all about hfa; he’s still very difficult to live with and has a poor relationship with me, the kids, his parents - also likely on the spectrum, and his colleagues. Poor communication, poor executive functioning skills, lack of understanding things, will not offer emotional support or conversation, totally does his one thing- which is work, eat, tv, sleep, can’t see needs of others or things- must be directed on what to do or worse will literally do nothing. Not fix the fire, console the kidC take out the garbage, plan the trip, etc.[/quote]
