[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 306287, member: 1550"] Marg, I will. But you have to understand like many undiganosed Aspies, while he is brilliant and gets academia really well, he misses the big picture a lot. If I told you his history, such as how he could identify the entire alphabet and numbers to 100 by 18 months old and learned how to count in Spanish at that time too, you'd say "Ah, Aspie." lol. He had no delays. He seemed brilliant. He has an IQ over 130 and school work was never a problem for him. But he always had obsessions and bad social skills. They are better than most on the spectrum, which is why I'm not really sure he has Aspergers, but he's got something and it's combined with a serious mood disorder too. He is not going to speak up against his loud wife. He really doesn't know how. And I'm not going to do it. It's none of my business, and he'd be really mad (justifiably) if I turned up the heat and made things worse. Once the marriage ends, I'm sure son will do something. He is eager to help his son, but lacks the ability to go against his wife. [/QUOTE]
