My oldest son is an adult as of June 3rd

Jun 06, 2011 03:35

My oldest son, who is the partial subject of so many of the posts about Aspergers and school, is now eighteen years old. By the standards of Canada, he is a legal adult. (I refer to this age as "the age at which we can legally kick you out of the house", which he finds amusing. Mostly.)

This is, in part, an open letter to my son.
A letter to my son on his eighteenth birthday )

family, no true way

Wow.... I wish someone had written this letter and given it to "my" mother when I was your sons age.

Happy birthday!

That was a great letter, Michelle. I will have to remember this when my kids turn 18.

You are such a great mother, and this is a wonderful letter. I still remember meeting your son in Montreal at the DAW dinner, and noting how smart and mature and nice he is.
