im so scared for my future son or duaghter please help i cant sleep becuz of it?

Asbergers isn't a disease. Your brain functions in a different spectrum than most, and I have known many individuals who are ridiculously successful who have Asbergers.

Your Mothers stress and emotional problems may not be exactly what you are thinking. You cannot know indefinitely that her problems are what created, what you believe, is your problem. Your mother may just be a generally unstable person.

As for passing it on to children.. I don't think enough time has passed since the discovery of Asbergers, for a proper statistical analysis to have been performed.

And if your future children DO have asbergers, well, then they have YOU - someone who has experienced it. Stop thinking of it as a curse. If your children DO have it, then YOU would be a blessing to THEM. You get what I am saying?

Although you are right, some things can be passed on, you can't live your life being afraid of everything. I understand you don't want a child going through what you are, but look at it this way, Are you willing to give up all the good stuff that comes with being a parent? Watching the child's first steps, hearing their first words, starting school? All the wonderful things in life often come with a negative side, most of the time though the positive outweigh the negative. And at 17, having kids should be the LAST thing on your mind, enjoy being 17, you're only 17 once. Don't be in such a rush to grow up. Take one day at a time and truly stop to smell the roses. I wish I had when I was your age, I'm 21 now and paying bills, raising my own son, and caring for my autistic fiance. But I never let life get me down because as hard as my life is, I still have alot of good in it.

I have a lot of mental problems that run in my family too. I was scared of passing it down to my kids. I have two girls now and they are fine. Whatever mental problems run in your family doesn't mean your kids will have it and if they do then there are ways to help them like medication and doctors. If my kids ever do end up with some of the mental problems that run in my family then it's my job as a mother to help them and guide them. Don't let mental problems ruin your life. I have severe anxiety problems and depression too but I take medicine for it and you can't even tell I have problems.

You can always have tests done to see if your disease will be passed down to your children. Its a very inexpensive test. You could actually do it yourself on a sheet of paper. It will give you a percentage and ratio of chances you will passed it down to your offspring. But don't let that stop you from wanting a family. You will find someone that will love you for who you are. If you have children, then they will do the same. It's a gift to be alive. Don't be depress about it. It could be worst.

Send them to a boarding house. They will grow with students of their age and this will generate in them a sense of strength and sturdiness. If anyone asks you, just say it's your choice to teach your children in a boarding house.
