[quote=Anonymous]I just read the New Yorker article. It is excellent, and heart-breaking, and raises many of the issues I struggle with as a parent, and particularly as a parent of a child with some special needs -- when to give in to the child's idiosynchracies, which professionals to listen to, when to seek out more professional help or try to manage things at home, when to push child more... The father does say that he thinks the Asperger's diagnosis masked a psychotic break... because the child was already not neuro-typical, the professionals and mother missed the warning signs that might have been obvious in a NT youth.[/quote]
