[quote=Anonymous]Your DH needs to deal. Yes, it's super hard to be the only NT in a household, but isolating you from all your friends is unfair and isn't going to help anything. Maybe you can get him on board with sharing a specific thing but not saying much. Like "Larla has been constipated lately so we're not doing long car rides." And then if they ask questions say "Oh, nobody wants to talk about poo" and change the subject. My kids are NT and believe me, when I see my mom friends struggling like this, I often do know. Not the specific diagnosis, but that something is up. And I see the dad-denial too. Your DH is not hiding things as well as he thinks he is. And he needs to get over himself. Privacy has its place but ultimately it is for the benefit of the *child*. Not to protect a grown man from the reality of life because he finds it embarrassing.[/quote]
