[quote=Anonymous]I know Aspergers doesn't exist as a diagnosis anymore, but I'm not sure what it has been replaced with. Recently, we have had some people mention Aspergers to us in regards to DC4. We have an appointment with a developmental pediatrician, but we can't get in for a while. In the meantime, I am trying to figure out DC. DC struggles initiating play with peers and has some social challenges. However, once comfortable, DC will run, play and talk with peers and adults. DC speaks with emotion and makes good eye contact. DC also has anxiety, sensory, and motor challenges that may indicate something like Aspergers, as well. DC does not seem to understand personal space boundaries and often needs to touch people. We have no concerns with pre-academics or speech/language. We are just trying to understand how best to help DC. Thanks![/quote]
