Hi
Last year my 7 yr old son was diagnosed with Aspergers. I can relate to the issue of rage which in our case is often due to sensory issues.
The unknowing public can be very judgmental. I can't tell you how many times Ive been given unsolicited advice from strangers when my son has gotten mouthy in the grocery store or post office.
Thank you for doing this show. I hope this show will shed light on disablities that cant be seen.

Isn't it amazing how many people think they know how we should parent our children. Our special needs children are unique in that they may show symptoms of the syndrome and yet at other times look and appear as TYPICAL as any other child/person.
We too have been at outings where people have commented on Alex's behavior and I want to shake them and scream at them and tell them not to judge. Until you have lived in my home and see what day to day life is all about you will never understand.
Keep doing what you think is best for your child. Keep reaching out to others for help and don't give up. I will continue to search even beyond what Dr. Phil and his staff may be able to provide. I want Alex to have the best life he can have and I want to see him make a difference for others as well.
I look forward to the day when I don't have to panic every time I see the Mood SWINGS.
With prayers to you and yours....I look forward to working with you and others to make AS a household name so we can find the answers for our children and ourselves.
