Matthew with his sister, Samantha, 10
Hi I’m Matthew.
I’m 13 years old and I am proud to say I have Asperger’s Syndrome. I believe people should embrace Asperger’s Syndrome and I do not know why people can be so disappointed when they are told their child has it.
If it weren’t for Asperger’s Syndrome, world science would not be as advanced as it is currently; ie in Physics people like Albert Einstein and Sir Isaac Newton, in Biology, people like Jane Goodall and in Chemistry, Marie Curie (just to name a few sciences and scientists).
Although it’s hard talking to people and I sometimes don’t understand what they mean, things do get easier as life goes on.
