AC,
I sent off an email to the show. I sent a request for an AS show about a month ago or so, so maybe they'll appreciate a 'Thank You' note. (I know that many many people have asked them to bring AS to the surface.) I must say, even if the show wasn't perfect, the more coverage it gets, the more the public will begin to understand that it's a REAL problem... but it will take time.
Yours,

P.S. To All: Write an email to the show with your thoughts.

Dear Dr. Phil Show,
Thank you for introducing Asperger's Syndrome on your show. It is a difficult topic to cover in such a short amount of time, but you were able to tell one family's story and open some minds to how difficult it is to live with this disorder.
If you have not already considered a show on adults with AS, that might be a good follow-up. Imagine being married to one of these guys. Although the rage issue is somewhat atypical for AS, with or without the anger problems, it is a formidable task trying to make life... pleasant.

It is a great resource in discovering how neurotypical people feel when married to these folks.
Thanks so much for reading,
