I'm reading a book called The Asperger Parent, which is okay, though I think overrated. But it's just about being the parent of an Aspie. We really could use a book about being a spectrum parent of a spectrum child. Or even a spectrum parent of an NT child.

Maybe you should write one. You could start it as a journal. :)

I think this is an excellent idea. How about a collaboration where different people contribute separate chapters and sections.
