After decades of bewilderment, my now 20's something children and I independently and separately came to the conclusion only recently that their father has Aspergers. No professional confirmation, but all the pieces of the jigsaw fit. We don't talk about it, and I don't know if he has ever heard of it. He's now in his late 60's (I'm a bit younger), and I'm wondering what behaviours to expect, or what we might have to deal with as he ages. Will problem behaviours become more exaggerated? (Have they become more pronounced in middle age, which is why we eventually "twigged"?) He's created enormous hurt over the years, so there's a legacy of huge strain, depression, misery and breakdown in relationships throughout the extended family. I don't think it can't get any worse, but I worry, and don't know what to anticipate. |
