that should be Gavin De Becker.

anyway, i've just started it and he immediately dives into the universality of parental intuition. it immediately had me wondering if aspie parents have innate parental intuition. is it part of the same wiring as social intuition. is it mostly based on reading subtle signals and body language and such that we are not so good at.

i'm thinking the entire book may not apply to me as i don't know if i would sense danger and pick up on the creepiness of someone as well as he thinks.

has anyone else read it and had similar thoughts?
