Bridging the communication gap between high functioning autistics and neurotypicals.

Last night it hit my brain (a term my mo in law would use) how to effectively share my love of Mark with him.  So I said, “Mark, you know how much you like books?” “Yeah” “I like you more than that.”  Big smile.  I decided to share his mother’s love with him as she has been pained about this. “Mark, you know how much you like books and I like you more than that?  You’re mom likes you more than THAT.”  “OH”

Know what your aspie loves and say that you like them more than they like that.  LEARN THE LANGUAGE!
