Hi! Completey new to forums and even newer to Aspergers. :lol:
Recently have had an initial diagnosis that my beautiful 10 yr old daughter has Aspergers, and when we both read the literature - BOY! did the penny drop.
mummys silly :roll: - guess who is sitting with me?? :oops:


As we start our adventure I am wondering if there are any forums for children to talk to each other or just let their feelings out.

My Girl is a wonderful and talented author in the making. But feels very isolated at school and could certainly do with contact with others who are on this adventure too! 8O

Have you taken a look at the Kid's Crater forum here? There is also an adolescent forum.
Also, from my experience, children are generally welcome at WP as long as certain forums/content is avoided. I know of several children who post in the "General Autism" and "Random" forums. Fora?

Thanks for your friendly and welcoming greetings, and the guidance towards the Kids Crater Forum.
Becky was so happy when she went to bed last night - because she's not alone! So thanks
