Question
My 5 year old was just diagnosed with aspergers. Where do I start to help him and where do I start to educate myself? I feel alone and scared. I live in a small area and I don't even know if we have anyone here that is well educated to guide us. How do I find that out?
Answer
A great place to start is with The Aspergers Comprehensive Handbook: Help for Parents with Aspergers Children.
