you can't the blame aspergers

peter0003

Hi All,  

       There is a lot of other things about my asperger's I don't understand and how to get the message across to those people who need to know that I mean no harm when I talk to them.  Being unemployed does not help but I volunteer to do work for my church espeically in the grounds/garden and have had problems with other members of the church in what I have said to upset them. And then I'm told that I cannot blame it  on being one with aspergers, If not why not? It is the only reason I could give for the situation. I may not know what to say or not say, or even  when to  shut up.

        And my sister in law is a pain, she's a methodist minister and it she thinks she knows everything to with austism. Just because her friends son has autism she thinks she knows best for me and then thinks i'm stupid most of the time.  I  am 51 years old, have a house, can drive , use a PC & have problems with saving  money  I try to forget about her nagging.   any HELP would help.

Yours Peter0003

  • Hi there,  

               You ask me what offends people & I can understand, I do say the most stupid things for example why don't you have more children ? or trying to talk to a busy person who doesn't want stop and chat.  I act as a child as i can talk to children easier than adults but as a 51 year old that's not easy espeically when the parents may think I 'm sex pervert or something else. This worried me at one point and had a chat to my GP who sent me to be accessed  by professinals who deal with that sort of thing. And when I told them I was a christian & my beliefs. They then told me that if i had not sexually assorted anyone already i would never do it.

                So when I talk to children they don't get offended as much as a adult does when I sound rude or stupid in what i say.   And it sounds like you child has the same problems as me, have you thought of someone who could take care of you son for a short rest bite care. ( the last part of that sentence would be the thing I would say without thinking and would affend that person.) 

                Thank you for listening at least I'm not alone.
