[quote=Anonymous]OP, I don't know if your question is answerable in the abstract, but here's a thought: I have ADD, also, and given the choice of which child to parent, I'd choose the one with Asperberger's because I think it would play to my strengths as a parent. I have a DS with ADHD and between the two of us, we're so darn disorganized and I often feel like I'm the worst possible person to parent him. I feel like a just reinforce all his weaknesses, poor kid. I do have good emotional intelligence and social skills, and I help him in that way, but that's really my strength and would be useful with a child with Asberger's. Anyway, OP, it doesn't really matter, because your child is who he is, and you just have to deal with that. Don't waste time with "what ifs" and wishful thinking. Just dig in and do your best.[/quote]
