[quote=Anonymous]Anecdotally I have a child with social pragmatic disorder (can't get the name straight) and a close family member on the spectrum. Here are some differences that I notice (sample size obviously quite small, so it's personal experience): 1. ASD seems to have significantly more and severe sensory integration issues 2. Anxiety and rigid thinking is higher with ASD 3. This is a big one - social communication (DC) seems to be able to reflect on social situations in hindsight. He can see what went wrong, even if he needs a lot of practice changing behavior. ASD, not as able to be reflective because of metacognitive issues. I can see that this might upset folks- it's not intended to generalize- it's just the unusual experience of one person being able to observe these two conditions side by side. [/quote]
