Hi Beth, I'm just new to forums so I need to get the hang of it. I posted to another thread that seemed to be parents of Asperger's children, which is me, I have a 13 year old with Asperger's. I may also have a husband with it. We have recently separated due to long-standing emotional/physical problems, he doesn't seem to understand how married partnership should work on that level. He is a hard worker, successful computer guy (no surprise if he does have Asperger's) a kind person, but I have been suffering for years not understanding why he seems to reject me. I have just started reading about adult asperger's and partners of those with asperger's and so many things they experience are what I have experienced. My son is actually doing very well in a private school and has been since grade 4, I can't say that our marriage has been over-stressed by his problems, which are small compared with what I read about some Asperger's children. I'm concerned for all of us, my husband wants to share custody equally, which means he will have to make major changes and I don't want him to collapse under the stress. I guess I'm looking for counseling advice for him, for me, for our two boys (my younger guy is just being assessed for his different, but possibly related, LD).
