I don't know if my parents ever had that wish that I would suddenly turn neurotypical, but, if they did, it probably didn't last long.

I may say "My ears are frozen" soon. There's a high risk of them being so in a Canadian winter even if I wear my toque.

I really hope your ears are not frozen, ever! :-) You seem to be a happy person, but my son is not. He is very lonely and sad all the time, no matter what I do. I have wished he was neurotypical because I thought that then he'd be happy. Maybe he wouldn't. I don't know. But my heart breaks for him. Your parents sound like wonderful people. Take good care of them!

I may seem happy, but I've been rather depressed off the keyboard. Writing and reading here has been a tonic I really needed.
