Hi, just getting started. I'm glad our planet is so populated, but the volume of topics and threads is a bit overwhelming. I'm 48, recently diagnosed, a parent (of 2 NTs), and a teacher. Much obliged to anyone pointing me in a useful direction.

Thanks everyone. I will check those things out. I'm learning more every day. I don't have any Aspie friends IRL that I can talk to, so these forums are a real gold mine for me.
