I have an 8yr old girl foster child with aspergers. I am finally after 6 months getting to where I can sense when something unappropriate is going to come out of her mouth in public but yikes!!! She is such a joy but she can be so frustrating also. I finally gave up on trying to get her to tie her own shoestrings and bought the curly kind so she can get them on herself, I think we will try again later, in the mean time she is busy memorizing 12th grade history material. She is a genius and a 2 yr old all in the same body.
Is this social bluntness problem correctable? I cant hardly stand to watch the reaction of another old lady being asked when she is going to die......or fear for our lives when she asks a black person "when are they going back to Africa"?
