[quote=Anonymous]There are plenty of Aspies who don't get diagnosed until they are teenagers or later in life. Doesn't mean there weren't signs there from the beginning, but they can be misunderstood when a kid is obviously bright and affectionate and functions very well with adults, particularly when he has first-time parents, with some near-ASD traits themselves--which is quite common. And of course the line between diagnosable Aspergers and sub-diagnosable eccentricity with ADHD is subjective. BTW I've heard very good things about Commonwealth from some current parents.[/quote]
