[quote=Anonymous]My son has ASD and ADHD and we told him when he was diagnosed. The ASD, Asperger's when he was diagnosed at 4 and the ADHD, combined type, when he was diagnosed at 7. DS is 8 now and this is part of who he is just as much as the fact that he is really great at math and chess. His diagnosis isn't a big deal, it just "is" and something he has to live with. It is helpful that the current world champion in chess, Magnus Carlsen, is suspected of having Asperger's too.[/quote]
