Exclusive Forum Section Idea...

Mr BHT

I only joined a couple of days ago and have been scanning the various threads (and the site in general), and I noticed that about 90% of the posts seem to be from mothers of children with autism/asperger's looking for help and advice as to what to do in certain situations, where to go, etc.

Now I am not denigrating anyone in the slightest, and I may have not looked too deep into the forum, but I was thinking that maybe there could be a section exclusively for those with autism/asperger's to post - perhaps an 'adults only' section restricted to members aged 18 and above with the condition, where they can interact with others and discuss their personal experiences without the observations and queries of neurotypicals getting in the way.

Just an idea from a newbie.

  • Hi mr BHT,

    I didnt think you were advocating for a forsed seperation, I think you had very valid points and i do agree that somewhere for my son to post knowing he was talking to someone that would understand would be great. Sorry if i made you feel that i thought you were.

    He is already a member of a Dyspraxic teen forum that is fantastic and exactly the sort of thing you were talking about and something similar on here would be great for him.
