Adults with Asperger's Disorder - Blog Entry

19 Feb 2009 09:10 AM

Have just spoken to my dear sister whose son of 23 was diagnosed many years ago with AS. She has done a wonderful job her and her husband. But her son has a 3year old son who she cares for (the mother does not want to know). She is having terrible problems now with her adult son who has assaulted two girlfriends, his latest on valentines night, splitting her eyebrow. He will not accept he needs help, but my dear sister is at the end of her rope. How do I help her where can she go for support, he is now not recogniseable as the person we once knew. He also lives in the family home. He had support throughout school but so obviously needs help before he ends up in jail for assault or worse.
