[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh stop. I could list several relatives who are adults and absolutely have ASDs -- they were never diagnosed as children because there was no diagnosis for high functioning kids. I can recall several kids whom I now think had ASDs but again, there was no diagnosis at the time. This idea that there are no autistic adults is total bunk.[/quote] ITA! My mother for one! My dad thought she was just very cold towards my sister and me. After reading up on Aspergers because of my niece, he totally believes she has it. They did diagnose girls with it back then. She was just weird. Or they guy with whom I went to high school that only would speak in Middle English and wore a large red sash like Something out of a Franz Hals painting. Had to have been AS![/quote] ^^meant to type "they did NOT diagnose girls"[/quote]
