(and FWIW: most of the people I know, Asperger's or not, hate shopping centres with the fire of your apocryphal thousand burning suns, and for exactly those reasons...so maybe people *just aren't meant to be be in these places*, but for people with Asperger's it's a kind of SPECIAL HELL.)
I shall think upon your words. And then try and think of things to help Sarah. I was researching musician's ear plugs last night on the internet: would these be something? If it still lets you hear but turns the volume right down, they might help her a bit with school...? It won't help with the 'more than one conversation' thing, but the noise level irritant may be reduced. Also, she wears glasses, so what about transition lenses? My mother wears them and swears by them. Anyway.
