I know people with aspergers

I know poeple with aspergers and rather than aske them as I know they get upset easily, I thought I would ask on this forum, 'why do some people with aspergers sound american when they are not american'?

    I have noticed some autistic people speaking with American accents when they are not American. And I have noticed people not using there own county or country accents, like a 'neutral' accent.

    I can't say that I speak with any different an accent to anyone else in my area, but I do sound a bit 'flat' when I hear myself speak.

    Me too.  And people have often commented on it.  That my voice is monotonous as if I have no emotion.
