[quote=Anonymous]Neither my husband nor I misbehaved. We both have high IQs but are inattentive. My husband also has Asperger's tendencies. I have low processing speed. We never related our difficulties in school or life with these things until our son was diagnosed with severe ADHD, abysmally low processing speed and HFA (high-functioning autism). Genetics! Thankfully I insisted on evaluations, therapies and meds. DS is more impacted than us, but we hope he can still live a fulfilling and independent life.

We understand our parents did not live in a time when these diagnoses were easy to think about or assess. They were barely aware there was something called hyperactivity - but didn't know about the inattentive type, or the rest. My husband and I missed out on so many early options for treatment, and faced many hurdles in our academic, professional and private lives. Living with people with socio-communicative disorders is HARD. Life is not easy for me with those two.

But we make do. None of this is anyone's fault.[/quote]
