I ask cos i think back to when I was first given the diagnosis of AS. My mother actually told more peeps then just my dad and siblings, she told some of my relatives and actually told her chiropractor and my dentist. which i find strange because it is none of their business. They have not told anyone else though.

Anyways, has this happened to anyone else? I can't help but think that it was a way of saying " hey, its not my fault, she is a total freak for reasons beyond my control".

I know my mother has told my grandparents and my relatives that I have AS. She has also told other people too at her work and people at job services when they asked what my disability is. She has told my school, the police officers in town, my doctors.

My mother once said to a complete stranger "He suffers from Asperger's Syndrome" or something to that effect, and the person was only calling about a survey, she'll take any chance she gets to gossip and complain to almost any she can, and once she starts she'll b***h at you like you've stabbed her in the back if you try to get out of it. She can talk for hours yet when somebody bores her she'll gossip about it to anyone who'll listen.
