[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ohhh he's going to be fine. He'll be a sweet nerd who will get an engineering degree and find a nice wife who thinks he's great. (My child has HFA). If/when this doesn't come true may I take your crystal ball and shove it up your....? Way to make a child's daily struggles into something trivial and minor.[/quote] Sometimes I try to remind myself of this. Because I have to have hope that my kid with HFA will be okay if we can get him to adulthood. [/quote] +1 This is hopeful to me too. DS has Asperger's and I look at family members whose symptoms were/are worse and they turned out fine. I don't think saying this trivializes the problems that DS faces at all b/c there's some truth to it and I know people say it to make ME feel better even if they are minimizing the challenges DS faces: Ex. His OT said DS will end up at MIT someday even though he couldn't dress himself when he was 4. :lol: [/quote]
