12. Lack of Humor
Individuals with Asperger’s Syndrome often lack any sense of humor. They may tell a joke but get no response or indication that the listener understands what the person is trying to say. People with Asperger’s may also have trouble recognizing humor in TV shows or when reading comic strips.
As a result, children with Asperger’s Syndrome can feel excluded from their peers at school. All of their classmates are laughing at the jokes they don’t understand, which means they have to withdraw from participating in social behaviors. And this also makes them unable to make friends or experience social acceptance and understanding. This is a severe concern for children because we develop our social standing by the time we are 8 years old.
