I have very limited energy and I would be doing so much better if the education system could have got it through their thick heads there was NO WAY for someone with NO ABILITY WHATSOEVER to visualize or remember visually to learn some of the things they demanded I learn. They wasted hours of my time when they could have been teaching to my strengths which was written and audio learning. Jesse James never stoled as much as they stole from me. Add to that the fact bullying, teasing and harrashment lead to hippocampus damaging PTSD and there is no way any Aspergian should have to put up with public Middle School! :( Here is the url for a free public online school, elementary to high school. I know nothing else about it. http://www.connectionsacademy.com/request-info/landing/google1.aspx That is one of my big beefs with most education for ANY one, that they waste too much of a children’s time and energy on their weaknesses not their strengths.
