[quote=Anonymous]When we hear statements like this young man made from NT kids, we say they are mentally ill or evil. I don't think he was either. I think his HFA impaired his ability to interact with NT peers. The vast majority of people in the spectrum wouldn't react with this extremity but the blogosphere probably amplified his sense that he was being mistreated (are there any affluent white males who aren't being mistreated these days?) How can we address this disconnect between internal expectations and realistic prospects in our care for the social-emotional needs of teens and young adults with HFA? [/quote]
