[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]With a diagnosis of HFA, he’s not likely to change. The primary challenge is social communication. The experience you had growing up isn’t relevant, because it doesn’t sound like your family members had autism. [/quote] This. Yes, conversation is typical, but yiir DH is not typical and conversation is probably very draining for him. My DH has no problem not conversing all the time at dinner. I find it awkward and annoying. When with others he will talk. He’s just a terrible conversationalist. My therapist said to just embrace the quiet not every second needs to be filled with noise. We eat dinner with the tv on. [/quote]
