What's your occupation/job?

Aged 60 !!

Just started my 25th year working with autistic and Asperger teenagers .. helping them get through the trauma of high school life ...

I sometimes feel a bit of a cheat as I'm Aspergers myself and in a way it makes the job so much easier ... although on the other hand being an 'aspie' also makes some aspects of my role so much harder of course ....

That is very cool! My other half’s daughter is autistic, significantly enough that she will never lead a normal life and will always need care. There are far more programs and support groups now than there used to be when she was diagnosed. So often those kids need an extra hand in navigating ‘normal’ society, and it’s great to hear that is being provided these days.
