Aspergers

That's not being diagnosed any longer. Are you in the US?

For a start, focus on his strengths (even though he's 7) and understand he's not actually dis-ordered. He neuro-network just works differently. He'll process, experience and understand the world in an interesting way, which means he might communicate differently.  Like everyone else, he'll be really good at certain things and rubbish at others. There is no such thing as being able to do "anything you want if you put your mind to it". I know plenty of individuals who will never have the ability to be doctors or chemists or artists no matter how 'hard' they try. This is simply a warped illusion of 'freedom' or a warped ideal given to humans in the West. 

I had always wished my parents treated me like a perfectly interesting foreigner or stranger. Clear pragmatic communication (I can't read your mind), always an advance warning with scheduling or expectations, uninterrupted time to study and learn, and always seeking to understand rather than taking offence and assuming. Basic ethical exchange, but many parents fail to use it with their own children.
