[quote=Anonymous]I don't know anything - just a parent who has gotten comfortable with the Aspergers/HFA diagnosis that encompasses this sort of stuff. And one of the things you discover in that process is that a lot of us have bits and pieces of it including extreme sensory sensitivity. As the joke goes, autism is contagious--you catch it from your kids. On reflection my wife has that part, I have other parts, and our DS has enough of the pieces to be diagnosable. I'd just urge anyone to read the SPD and HFA literature together with an open mind. Whether this is one spectrum or two or six, it's complex and there are plenty of wonderful and brilliant kids who you could easily put in one bucket or another without changing anything about how wonderful and brilliant they are.[/quote]
