A Conversation for Body Language

Universal gestures?

My son has Asperger's syndrome.
He is unable to read another person's body language/facial expressions.
I don't know how he will cope as an adult.
Most body language is subconscious, unless one is looking for it in other people.
How can you teach it to someone who doesn't understand?
e.g. He sees me in pain, he laughs, he assumes I am making a funny face. He has no concept that I am in pain, by my facial expression.
