Welcome to AC. I just saw this and I wanted to let you know that you are not retarded. I am visually impaired also. I am legally blind. I also have Aspergers and a nonverbal learning disability. You are good at many things sometimes it just takes time to figure out how to get the information inside out. Oh we all care here. I am in my early 30's but I remember how confused and sad I was when my parents divorced at the same age. as yours was and for the same reasons only it was my father. Welcome here.my name is Jasmine, i'm 13 years old and in 8th grade.. so lets start my story from when I was 10, my parents divorced because my mom cheated on my dad, that caused me a lot of confusion and sadness, I now live w/ my dad, and recently got my heart broken(we'll call him A) Yes, I do have asperger's syndrome, and I have awful eyesight. I'm often thought of as retarded, (i'm not good at anything except writing sad poems) I'd just like someone to talk to.. since not many care
