Personally I think it is simply a teenager thing!! I'm sure the Aspie contributes more to it, but this is a tough age anyway for expressing feelings.

My S also doesn't share much on his feelings, but he does come to me when he needs to, so that is the important thing here. Always let them know you are there for them. One time I just said out of the blue 'You do know I am always here to listen to you right?' No answer from S, but then a few weeks later he came and spilled, all on his own.

We are great moms and they see us that way. smile
