My son has recently been diagnosed on the spectrum. In an effort to gain as much information as possible I have been in many forums and reading much research. I do not mean to target anyone specifically, and I don't mean to create any debate, but I would like to point out my observation.
Asperger's syndrome, as it is generally being described on this forum, is in the VERY VERY mild end of the spectrum, and I think people need to be reminded that just because you know a great deal about Asperger's, or have asperger's yourself, you may only know very little (if anything) about the severe end of the spectrum.
Please be open minded.
Thank you.
