  • Hi my son is 18 with aspergers, he is having difficulties with knowing when he is raising his voice to people which causing both them and him distress. Does anyone else have this difficulty and have any suggestions/strategies that they have used to help with this? I am new to the forum and would be grateful for any advice.

  • A lot of people talk too loud. They are not even autistic. He or she who yells loudest these days is the one who has to be heard. Try riding on a bus when schools turn out!!

    What I wonder is, why don’t people just LISTEN to each other? Why don’t NTs generally not know how to take turns and include quieter voiced people? Of course the answers are probably quite obvious. 

    Just wondering what other people think. Who raises their voice first in a discussion and why? Most people do it. It’s not an ASD thing.
