| Just a quick question: Is the sun's gravity at the Earth's average distance from the sun stronger or weaker than the Earth's gravity on the surface of the Earth? |

| My family accepted my dx since before I was old enough to realise there was such a thing as AS. It might have helped that I'm the second generation in my family: My Uncle has a sevear case, he can't even speak, I'm a mild case myself. |

| I think the teacher was out of line here. Their professional duty was to pass on accurate information, outside of class they can talk to your son about the proper way to correct teachers. Inside the classroom its their job to suck it up and correct the mistake. |

| Right now, there's too big of an age differential, AND she has two brothers that are a year older and a year younger than our son. He's "supposed" to be friends with THEM, according to social custom -- but he's only "kind of" friends with the younger brother. I don't know how a relationship with th... |

| Just get out and try new things and if they don't like it then let them quit. My parents always insisted I stuck with stuff which may or may not be related to the fact I didn't try new things for a long time. |

| Actually I'm not having much trouble getting my mine to where ouinon's seems to be (although the language in that post is tieing me in knots). I think ouinon simply uses the word "reality" like the rest of us use the word "truth" and uses the word "truth" as the rest of us would say "most commonly s... |

| As it is humans, and humans only, that use the word "truth", it was therefore actually "true", then, that the sun orbited the sun. The fact that the earth has always orbited the sun is irrelevant to the fact that humans decide what is true, what things "are" true, and that this changes irrespective... |
