I fairly new and I feel welcome. Everyone is so helpful. I think you can always as questions about anything you don't understand. I always remember that all these boards are about (for me) is helping my child be the most balanced, productive and happy person reasonably possible - same as any parent. Here are some tools that based on my child's disposition might help that. In terms of "success", well, studies do show that's a product of just enough intelligence (115? 120?) and lots of hard work and a little luck! I like to remember too that resilience and character are key to contentment with self. So to me these boards help me, as a parent of a child who thinks a little differently, find support.
