What are the special needs of an adult with Asperger's Syndrome?

Each person with AS is going to have different abilities, not necessarily "special needs." As an adult Aspie, I would like understanding, acceptance, tolerance, and patience from the rest of society. (Of course if everyone were to accept and live by these principles, the world would be a much better place!) My whole life I have felt different, like I just couldn't fit in. I was teased and bullied, I was abused. All I have ever wanted was to feel accepted, yet it is the one thing I can't achieve and have been prevented from attaining. If you know someone with AS, try to overlook the quirks, make them feel wanted and loved; help them if they ask for it. We want the same things as everyone else, we just don't know how to express it in socially acceptable ways all the time.

Adult aspergers syndrome?
People with Aspergers tend to see large improvements as they get older. Children with Aspergers tend to be what others may say, "In their own world" as they may be obsessive with certain things and prefer to be alone. Teens with Aspergers tend to be more social and aware of themselves and this is a rather touchy area as with other teens. Adults with Aspergers may or may not be viewed as being an Aspie as many adults can "mask" the issue by acting as how others behave or doing what needs to be done. Normally adults are seen as normal yet "off" but this alone is normal as they have Aspergers.

Here are the chances: If neither of you have the recessive (down syndrome) allele - 0% If one of you have the recessive allele - 0% If you both have the recessive allele - 25% The chances are pretty low but it is not definite that you wont have a special needs baby.
