ASAN Update

ASAN Manitoba Chapter has been updated. Sorry that it took so long. I have been very busy with my teaching job at Baibombeh Anishinabe School in Sioux Narrows Ontario. I will work towards updating this more often I promise. The site now embraces all sides of the Autism Spectrum, and more updates are on the way!

Dr. Aston’s Study on Relationships

I was referred to this study, and decided to place it on the discussion board. I was enraged by it. I personally feel insulted by this, and feel that it does not properly reflect the ASC community. The only examples given are with the men having ASC, and the women being Neurotypical. She states that the relationship will suffer because of Cassandra Syndrome. This causes apathy on the part of the neurotypical partner. The individual with ASC will be thought of as a lesser person, and the relationship will deteriorate.

I would like to know what other people think of this, so please go to the Discussion Board and leave your two cents worth!
