[quote=Anonymous]I posted before, but am posting again b/c I really am shocked someone thinks severe ADHD could possibly be less challenging than mild Asperger's?? I think the first word "mild" "moderate" "severe" tells you a lot more about how challenging it is and where the child's level of functioning is at time of diagnosis. The good news is with interventions some kids can move along from say severe to moderate or moderate to mild or maybe even severe to mild? When I taught I had kids with both presentations. Actually, the kids with mild asperger's were easier than some of the kids without IEPs and much less time consuming than kids with severe anything including ADHD. I liked ALL the kids, but if you are looking at which is more impairing and time consuming for the teacher-it's severe ADHD. [/quote]
