Guest guest Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 ---Born in Indiana, moved to Bradenton, FL in 1993. My son is 18, severely disabled w/Autism, no speech and Tourettes or some other tic disorder. My oldest brother has Asperger's and I believe that I am also on the spectrum...would explain a lot of my " problems " in life. I remember " attacking " one of my brothers out of frustration of not feeling like I " fit in " anywhere. Social situations are still very awkward for me...I do not like to be touched or to touch others...I LOVE my kids, but rarely think to give hugs...it is just not in me no matter how much I want it...very painful and lonely life...Like always standing on the outside looking in...even worse for my son, though. I DO feel his pain, but feel that I understand him more than anyone else.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Thankyou for sharing, I have always been the odd man out in my family. So my mom jokes, but I think I may be on it as I seem to “connect” with the kids, I can’t sit still always have to be busy. The hugging thing would be rough for me, I am one of the only ones in my school who still hugs the students, I am careful in my position. But will hug any child that asks or “needs” it. You’re a very strong person tho. And I have found it a pleasure to meet you.and I love how you and others have moved from states. I have been in jersey from day one. I have lived in the top middle southern and now the tip of it. lol Debra nj From: autism [mailto:autism ] On Behalf Of H Sent: Friday, September 25, 2009 1:18 AM autism Subject: Re: off topic just curious ---Born in Indiana, moved to Bradenton, FL in 1993.

Guest guest Posted September 25, 2009 Report Share Posted September 25, 2009 Hi Debra, There have been studies done in the past that seemed to find " pockets " that had a higher rate of Autism. I seem to remember that there was a school in NJ that had a higher rate of students on the spectrum, and the teachers that had babies had a higher rate on the spectrum also. Sorry I can't remember much more about it. Maybe someone else does. -- In autism , " debra lynn byrne " <patrickbyrne2@...> wrote: > > Cool, southern nj is very quiet and we all have atleast 1 acre in the > suburbs.
