As a single parent raising a son with Asperger's I was amazed at how little was known about it, even from my local school district. I wrote this book to show how I over came the problems of raising a child with Asperger's Now ten years later, society has grown and learned, we've come a long way, but if you read me first book, you'll know my son is now in his senior year and any parent single or not will face a completely new set of problems that we could never have dreamed of ten years ago as our children enter young adulthood. One of the biggest problem is that most books written today or wrote as if we all have a PHD, well just like in "I am not so Different" I have broken these problems down in to clear everyday language that is easy to follow and get the most out of that said I am proud to present; "My future is bright, I am going to be successful."
