I am an Aspie Girl: A book for young girls with autism spectrum conditions

Product Information

She writes that autistic "girls" do not understand nor like gender roles but will (and have to) accept them later on in life. By saying that, she only reinforce these norms. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone if they haven't read any other literature about girls and women with asperger. Even if you do have knowledge about asperger syndrome, I am not sure i would recommend it, but at least you would be more likely to see what is relevant and what appears to be merely her own opinion. Also apparantly people with autism might have it because they ALL have gut problems? And you should use dietary supplements and eat non-processed foods and when possible no animal products, also sugar is bad guys. Ok then....I'm al for eating less sugar and staying healthy. But I also know that often non-processed stuff or so called healthier brands of food are also WAY more expensive. And the book mentions that women with ASS have a high chance of dealing with poverty so....there you go. I found it to be completely understandable if people opt to go for the less healthy BUT cheaper brands of food, especially if they live with other people. Meanwhile in the real world there are adults that absolutely adore Disney, sleep with plushies because they might have fallen in love with how cute it was, got it from a dear partner/friend. Many adults play games, hell look at things like pokemon! Adults collect things from their favorite shows/books, cosplay at cons. I could go on for a long time.

I don't mean just to quote, which is annoying but I could almost understand. He already secured the job - we agreed the price, day etc. If he did a good job on radiators we were also going to use him to fit our shower room which he knew. So he basically just wrote off receiving 100s of pounds from us. no.9: The scenero at hand is pretty much how my classmates react to me. I have been called an “emotionless robot” before.

Being a parent of a girl with autism biases my reading interest toward books on the topic, and to date I have read a lot. Aspergirls is quite atypical of many i have read and refreshing in style.

Alexithymia usually occurs in part because of deficits within the corpus callosum. Another common comorbidity of Alexithymia (and autism) is PTSD, and I would say the jury is still out on whether it’s occurrence in autism is secondary to trauma or secondary to the autism itself.Guy: “What does that mean? What day do you want to hang out? How long do you want to hang out? What do you want to do? Can you be more specific? What does hanging out mean? Does that mean doing something that you want to do? Do I have to hang out with new people, which will cause me to analyze what is acceptable social behaviour, which changes from one person to the next person? Why can’t you define anything clearly?”
