    not at all. its perfectly safe. its a zipfile with an mp3 in it.

    also, try 7digital.com for legal mp3s (its like itunes, but uses DRM free high quality mp3s)

    Me too. £3.99 for a single was a total rip off though.

    I have Asperger's (I was diagnosed a few years ago with it).

    Tell your son "hi" from a fellow Aspie. :)

    Do you? He was diagnosed few years back, very intelligent!!! like his mum lol. I was a bit scared for him when i first found out, but a lot more common than we think. His "thing" is making lego movies on youtube, very clever and has a LOT of patience. He says "hi" back btw

    I was a bit scared when I first found out about it, but the more I learnt about it, the more comfortable I became. It was strange reading other people's accounts of their lives and thinking "that's me!". It's just a different way of looking at the world really. It'd be boring if we were all the same.

    My thing when I was younger was taking things apart; I managed to put most of it back together again though.

    My poor parents. :p

    Sounds like your son is very talented though. He could have a good career as an animator if he stuck with it.
  • What about the markets? Market traders usually take kids on and I am sure his Asperger's should not stand in the way (although I am lucky enough to live in a good area for support etc).

    I am surprised at newsagents. Is that not discriminatory? (Dave not getting into an argument and genuinely trying to help).
