If I received a book titled "how to solve or cope with x specific issues" i would certainly be happy because now i could figure out a way to solve issues. Unlike enslavement of my ancestors, aspergers is a condition that you can cope with and actually correct through things like OT, executive functioning classes and other stuff like that.

Giving a child with aspergers a book written by know-it-all psychologist is going to do absol-loving-utely do nothing to help. Think about this: if you give a depressed child/adult/manchild a book that says "How to Stop being depressed", do you think they're going to appreciate it? The answer: hell no. Instead of relying on a book to teach your kid how to do everything, maybe you should be a better parent and teach them? Maybe you should be a better parent and take them to proper psychologists..? I 'm not going to be appreciative of my parents if they gave me a book that told me that I have assburgers, and how this forgettard thinks he's figured out the solution to making children with a mental disability survive in the real world.
Also, you haven't read the book so you should really shut the forget up.

OrangeMan:
All this salt from aspies who want to pretend what they have isn't a disorder is painful to read through
