Aspies Have A Mental Age of 10

Author: AspieWeb Admin - Categories: Aspergers, Autism and Society - Tags: , , , , , , , , , ,

So I have been looking around the news latley for references of Aspergers and I found another person using Aspergers as an excuse for criminal behavior.  Many people are well aware of the story of Gary McKinnon - The Pentagon Hacker.  Well now there is a mother of a child who bombed a cafe in Exter, UK who claims her son has a mental age of a 10 year old due to Aspergers Syndrome.

So not only does Aspergers make hacking acceptable if your searching for information that your obsessive about such as UFO’s - it makes you have a ten year old mentality.  I’m getting very sick of Aspergers being used as an excuse for peoples screw-ups.  My life with Aspergers isnt exactly a cakewalk as it is - and then when things like this start swaying the oppinion of people it sure the heck aint gonna make it any easier.
