The Hidden Social Curriculum




Great. For them.




  • Friends forgive each other for mistakes they accidentally make.
  • When you have a friend over, follow these steps:
1. Greet him and lead them inside.
2. Offer him a drink.
(like video games or a movie)

Brenda Smith Myles is an excellent author. I've found this book to be a big help with my older Aspies and Auties. It's also been an eye-opener to introspection for me as an NT.
Amazing how our brains process info so differently - but both types of processing are vital.

I'm a 26 yr old female with diagnosed Asperger's. And i really just find things like this amusing. Just because NTs are in the majority, they automatically think that we need to use up all our energy to try and abide by their rules so we don't offend any of them. If i'm served something I don't like, i'll tell you. I'm sorry if you don't have the emotional stability to keep something like that from bothering you. If there were more Aspies than NTs, being NT would be a "disorder"
but, thats just my opinion. sorry if i offended

Ok, I'm baffled at this one I can't understand the reason behind it.

What if it's my dad? or my grandpa? or an uncle? do I have to do it either way? Why? I love my family and they love me back... the mind boggles, seriously :O

I want to scream at the number of times an NT will tell me to stop "faking" and then order me to smile in the next breath.
No, not scream. More like grab my Super Soaker and just blast people at random.
