I know there are zillions of books on "How to raise a child on the spectrum" (etc), but none I have found offer to help with the opposite scenario. Suggestions? Books? Blogs? Zines? Newsgroups? Telephone trees?

Somebody will undoubtedly point me to a Facebook group, but I'd rather not go that route.

I'm sorry, I wish I could help you. I'm helping my wife raise our kids. Two are most definitely NT with one being more like me. They say kids don't come with a manual. I think it is even more difficult for an ND to raise kids. I know it's very challenging for me in ways that it's not for an NT Dad.
