We are getting ready to move in with a family of aspies--my poor wife will be the only NT (neurotypical) among us! So we are developing "communication rules"...
Couples and people I have known who move in with another family (be they relatives or friends) think it will be an enlarged family, but the host family feel...
Hi Bonnie and Deena, I think these rules actually sound great- and one more- when one person fails to recognize another, nobody gets offended at this! May I...
Hi Bonnie, My wife and I are actually moving into a separate, 350 square foot house. We've lived together in a tiny space for 4 years, and can continue...

Wow, Sometimes it just hits me over the head how very difficult any communication is. My husband, as you can tell, is from a rather different background than...
Hey V, there's a way you can get around not being able to tell if people are angry or arguing with you. Knowing you have trouble with that, when people seem to...
Sorry, but I see no humor, wry or otherwise, in the first few paragraphs of your message, and I am writing to you privately about this. As for the second part,...
